— Denver Broncos (@Broncos) October 9, 2016
Position | Name |
Outside Linebacker | DeMarcus Ware |
Safety | Justin Simmons |
Tight End | Virgil Green |
Quarterback | Trevor Siemian |
Guard | Connor McGovern |
Tackle | Donald Stephenson |
Cornerback | Kayvon Webster |
Thoughts:
Quarterback Trevor Siemian is the headline inactive for the Broncos. This means veteran Austin Davis is Paxton Lynch's backup today, and it shows that Siemian isn't healthy enough to be the backup today as well.
Also inactive for the Broncos is tackle Donald Stephenson and tight end Virgil Green. Look for Ty Sambrailo to replace Stephenson and tight ends Jon Phillips and Jeff Heuerman replace Green in the lineup again.
With cornerback Kayvon Webster inactive, second-year corner Lorenzo Doss will serve as the Broncos 4th string corner and play special teams.
The rest of the Broncos inactives include injured pass rusher DeMarcus Ware and rookies Connor McGovern and Justin Simmons.
Atlanta Falcons:
Position | Name |
Cornerback | Jalen Collins |
Linebacker | Deion Jones |
Linebacker | Paul Worrilow |
Linebacker | De'Vondre Campbell |
Guard | Wes Schweitzer |
Tight End | Joshua Perkins |
Guard | Caleb Benenoch |
