He Denver Broncos They have a tough three-game stretch ahead of them, starting with the equally 5-3 Baltimore Ravens. We’ve been monitoring the injury report from the respective teams, especially considering Baltimore’s starting quarterback missed two days of practice, but we finally had some clarity on Friday.

With the Broncos and Ravens releasing their final injury reports for Week 9, let’s examine how the health chips have fallen for both teams, starting with the opponent.

Analysis: In fact, after not participating in the first two days of practiceJackson participated fully in Friday’s activities. It shouldn’t be surprising, considering the two-time MVP hasn’t missed a game due to health reasons since 2022, but there was some concern surrounding his injuries.

Jackson’s cloudy state certainly didn’t affect the Broncos’ game planning. The Broncos defense will be as prepared as possible for the former Heisman Trophy winner, but you have to wonder how much those back and knee injuries are holding him back.

Keep an eye on Humphrey’s status as Sunday approaches. Listed as questionable, he’s likely to play, but that would be a big break for Denver considering how many Ravens defensive backs are banged up right now.

Analysis: The Broncos are pretty healthy at the halfway point, all things considered. Unfortunately, Locke will miss another game with that thumb injury, but Devon Key filled in admirably last week, albeit against an overmatched Bryce Young. Jackson is a completely different enchilada.

The Broncos began counting on Turner-Yell, who has so far missed the entire season with a knee. If Locke were healthy, I’m not sure I see the point in bringing Turner-Yell back, but the fact that the team opens his return window and the deadline decision means the team fears Locke could still be lost. longer. But not enough to justify injured reserve, where Turner-Yell spent the 2024 season.

McGlinchey returned to practice Friday as a full participant, as did his primary backup, Palczewski, which is reassuring. The Broncos’ offense has looked better day and night since McGlinchey returned from IR in Week 7, so let’s hope he doesn’t suffer any setbacks with that knee.
