- Broncos injuries: 4 players left Jaguars game injured
The Denver Broncos are nicked up coming out of a 34-20 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars .
Broncos linebacker Dre Greenlaw (hamstring), safety Delarrin Turner-Yell (knee), tight end Nate Adkins (knee) and wide receiver Pat Bryant (concussion) all left Sunday's game and did not return.

Greenlaw pulled up late in the fourth quarter and was quickly ruled out. Hamstring injuries can be tricky, so he seems unlikely to be ready in time for a Thursday Night Football showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs on Dec. 25.
Turner-Yell went down after being elevated from the practice squad to the game-day roster on Saturday. It was a heartbreaking development for the safety, who was making his return to action after missing all of the 2024 season after tearing his ACL in Week 17 of the 2023 season.
Adkins appeared to suffer a non-contact knee injury early in the second quarter. Adkins previously missed five games earlier this season with a knee injury.
Bryant was the most high-profile injury of the game. On the second-to-last play of the night, Bryant took a brutal hit from cornerback Montaric Brown . Bryant was then loaded onto a backboard, carted off the field and taken by ambulance to a local hospital.

Broncos coach Sean Payton said in his postgame press conference that Bryant had movement in his hands and legs, and the receiver was released from the hospital with a concussion on Sunday evening. Bryant is now in the NFL's concussion protocol, and he's extremely unlikely to play on TNF later this week.
Denver will not practice today, but the team is required to release three injury reports leading up to Thursday's game, so we should receive an estimated injury report later today. The Broncos could be missing several key players when they travel to Kansas City for an AFC West showdown on Christmas.
