Denver Broncos:

Thoughts: The Broncos will be without their star tight end Julius Thomas for this afternoons game. Thomas suffered an ankle injury early in last weekends game against the Rams. However the Broncos are getting back blocking tight end Virgil Green back. Green has been dealing with a calf/knee injury. His presence should help the Broncos running game. Look for Jacob Tamme and Green to replace Thomas's production on the field.

Wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders is playing after suffering a concussion last week. He was listed as probable so it's not a big surprise that he's playing.

A few surprises on the inactives list are defensive tackle Marvin Austin and offensive tackle Chris Clark. Look for Mitch Unrein to be the backup defensive tackle, and Paul Cornick to be the backup offensive tackle.
