The Denver Broncos have placed outside linebacker Baron Browning on injured reserve due to a foot injury he sustained during Week 2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. His absence will be felt, but rookie Jonah Elliss managed to contribute with a sack in his absence. To fill Browning's spot on the roster, wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey has been promoted from the practice squad.

Although the team is excited about Humphrey's potential, Browning's ongoing injury struggles hinder his ability to showcase his talent, especially as he enters a contract year. Meanwhile, quarterback Bo Nix continues to work on developing chemistry with his receiving corps, as the Broncos grapple with injury challenges impacting their performance.
