Broncos rule out DT D.J. Jones, TE Nate Adkins for Sunday at Raiders
The Broncos on Friday ruled out defensive tackle D.J. Jones and tight end Nate Adkins for Sunday’s game at Las Vegas.
Jones did not practice all week after suffering an ankle injury in last Sunday’s 27-26 overtime win at Washington. He is expected to be replaced in the lineup by Malcolm Roach. Adkins will miss his fifth straight game due to a knee injury suffered Oct. 26 against Dallas.
Rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant did not have an injury designation after being limited in practice Thursday and Friday with a hamstring injury. Defensive lineman Zach Allen returned to practice Friday after sitting out Thursday due to a calf injury and also did not have an injury designation.
The Raiders listed star defensive end Maxx Crosby as questionable for Sunday after he missed practice Thursday and Friday with a knee injury.
