Overview
- Greenlaw exited Thursday’s training camp practice after pulling up in a one-on-one pass-coverage drill against J.K. Dobbins and did not return.
- Coach Sean Payton said the tightness affected a different muscle than Greenlaw’s spring quadriceps strain and that the team is conducting precautionary evaluations to determine his availability.
- Greenlaw signed a three-year, $31.5 million free-agent deal in March and has missed significant time in previous seasons due to groin strains, hamstring pulls and a torn Achilles.
- The Broncos have also lost Alex Singleton to a broken thumb and Drew Sanders to a foot injury in camp, putting pressure on reserve linebackers to fill critical snaps.
- Once cleared, Greenlaw is slated to start alongside Alex Singleton at inside linebacker as Denver seeks to build one of the NFL’s top defenses.
