Overview

• The team placed Greenlaw on short-term injured reserve Saturday for a quad/thigh injury, making him ineligible for at least four games with the earliest return in Week 7 vs. the Giants.
• Tight end Evan Engram was ruled out for Sunday at the Chargers with a back injury after logging four catches for 33 yards over the first two weeks.
• Sean Payton said Greenlaw had another issue with the same thigh during camp, and an earlier plan to ramp him for a possible Week 4 return is no longer in play.
• Denver elevated linebacker Garret Wallow and fullback Adam Prentice from the practice squad for the Chargers game, with Prentice reaching his third standard elevation limit.
• With Greenlaw yet to play since signing a three-year, $31.5 million deal, Alex Singleton, Justin Strnad and Karene Reid are expected to handle the bulk of inside-linebacker snaps.
