The Denver Broncos are once again dealing with an injury to one of their top wide receivers, Jaylen Waddle.
Waddle suffered an apparent injury in the second quarter of his team's Week 9 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. He was elevating in an effort to reel in a deep shot from Bo Nix when he took a shot to the helmet from rookie safety Zakee Wheatley.
Waddle briefly remained down after the play but was eventually able to spring to his feet and make his way to the sideline under his own power.
Waddle was later seen jogging to the locker room without his helmet to be evaluated for a potential head injury.
Here's what to know about Waddle's injury as the Broncos look to dispatch the Panthers in Week 9.
