The injury situation for the Denver Broncos continues to get worse in Week 2 as they were forced to send cornerback A.J. Bouye to injured reserve for three weeks and have ruled running back Phillip Lindsay out for their game against the Pittsburgh Steelers due to turf toe.
The biggest question now is whether or not Courtland Sutton will be ready to go in Week 2. He is still day-to-day with an AC joint sprain. Head Coach Vic Fangio confirmed that he will be a game-time decision.
Tackle Garett Bolles and wide receiver Tyrie Cleveland were also listed as questionable. Bolles is likely to play through his elbow injury, but Cleveland remains questionable.
Pittsburgh has ruled out two guards for this game, with both David DeCastro and Stefan Wisniewski out this week. They also lost tackle Zach Banner to injured reserve, but all other players on this week’s injury report have been cleared to play.
Here is your final Broncos-Steelers injury update prior to Sunday.
