The Denver Broncos final injury report has come out ahead of their AFC Championship matchup with the New England Patriots.
The first notable thing is the situation around J.K. Dobbins. Head coach Sean Payton
would not confirm if he’ll be playing earlier today, but now that the final injury report is out we can see he is ruled out for this game. That was something we were all hoping would not be the case, but he did continue to practice so if Denver can get past the Patriots we might see him on the field for the Super Bowl.
Good news on the Pat Bryant front, though. Payton confirmed that he had no concussion symptoms the day after and he’s had his helmet upgraded. I’m assuming that means the padded larger-sized helmet. I’m cool with that. Anything to help him stay safe and out there helping the team win.
For the Patriots, they will be down their team sack leader with outside linebacker Harold Landry being ruled out for the game. Anything that helps keep Jarrett Stidham in a clean pocket is welcome news and hopefully this means he’ll get more help on interior protection assignments.
Here is your full practice report for Friday.
