Denver Broncos wide receiver Wes Welker won't play vs. Kansas City Chiefs

The NFLPA voted to approve the NFL's drug policy, but last-minute "unresolved issues" have delayed the reinstatement of suspended players like Denver Broncos wide receiver Wes Welker, according to reports. Those issued dragged on Friday night and past the Saturday 4 p.m. EDT deadline for the Broncos to activate Welker on their roster.

It's past 2 p.m. and Wes Welker is not on the Broncos' 53 man roster. He won't play tomorrow against Chiefs.

NFL confirms still no drug policy agreement. Deadline has come and gone to activate players for Sunday. So Welker, Scandrick, etc. wait.

Welker won't play Sunday. Thanks NFL.

NFL: "After years of negotiations, here's our proposal." Players: "Signed!" NFL: "Whoa that was fast." [makes up unresolved issues]
