The Broncos and Raiders have released their final injury report ahead of their matchup this Sunday.
The Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders have released their final injury reports of the week before their week 5 divisional matchup this Sunday in Denver. The Broncos enter this game winning two straight games and looking pretty healthy. Meanwhile, the Raiders have their star wide receiver Davante Adams requesting a trade and a lengthy injury report with multiple star players on it.
As I said, the Broncos come into this game fairly healthy. They will be without running back Tyler Badie who suffered a back injury vs. the Jets. Head Coach Sean Payton has said that an injured reserve designation may happen but for now, the Broncos are keeping Badie on the 53-man roster. I would imagine the Broncos will activate rookie Audric Estime off the injured reserve on Monday and place Badie on it as the corresponding roster move. Outside of that, the Broncos are looking healthy. Safety JL Skinner will be back after missing the past two weeks and all the other players do not have a game status which means they’re all good to go for the game this Sunday.
While the Broncos are coming into this game healthy, the same cannot be said of the Las Vegas Raiders. They have a total of 18 players on their injury report with five of them listed as questionable and seven of those players listed as out for Sunday’s game vs. the Broncos.
The headliner here is wide receiver Davante Adams who has been ruled out of the game. He will miss his second straight game and has requested a trade from the Raiders. He has been one of the few receivers to give Pat Surtain II trouble during his career so he’ll be a huge loss for the Raiders. The rest of the Raiders players ruled out for the game include offensive tackle Thayer Munford, cornerback Decamerion Richardson, tight end Michael Mayer, safety Trey Taylor, running back Zamir White, and linebacker Luke Masterson.
Defensive end Maxx Crosby missed last week’s game and the first two practices of this week due to an ankle injury but he did get in a limited practice today and is listed as questionable. He has been a thorn in the side of the Broncos throughout his career so we’ll see if he’s good to go for Sunday or not. The rest of the Raiders listed as questionable include linebacker Divine Deablo, linebacker Kana’i Mauga, guard Dylan Parham, and wide receiver Tyreik McAllister.
