The Denver Broncos are a bit dinged up at several key positions heading into their game against the Oakland Raiders this weekend.
Cornerback Aqib Talib is nursing a shoulder injury, wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders is still working through a lingering ankle injury, while Shane Ray now has an ankle injury to go along with his still-healing wrist. Adam Gotsis is also dealing with an ankle injury. That’s a lot of starters not at 100% going into this next game.
The Raiders had a few guys that didn’t participate either, but more for veteran rest day with both Bruce Irvin and Khalil Mack getting the day off.
