Broncos Rule Out Evan Engram, Dre Greenlaw for Week 3 vs. Chargers

Denver turns to reserves following late-week injury rulings.

Overview

  • Coach Sean Payton said Engram's back issue surfaced during the Week 2 loss at Indianapolis, and the tight end was ruled out Friday after not practicing this week.
  • Greenlaw remains sidelined by a quadriceps/thigh injury and has yet to make his Denver debut after signing a multi-year deal reported at three years and $35 million.
  • Linebacker Justin Strnad fully participated in Friday's practice and is available to continue filling snaps alongside Alex Singleton.
  • With Engram out, the Broncos list Adam Trautman, Nate Adkins and Lucas Krull as their healthy tight ends for Sunday.
  • Denver is likely to elevate a practice-squad linebacker for game day, with Garret Wallow, Levelle Bailey or Jordan Turner among the candidates.
