Broncos Star Safety To Be Out In Week 10

The Denver Broncos season is on the verge of becoming an unmitigated disaster, with the running joke of Russell Wilson at Quarterback to go along with the various players injured or traded away, and to add insult to injury, they'll now be without their star safety again, despite optimism that he could return from injury to take on the Tennessee Titans in Week 10.

The All-Pro safety has been an absolute star for the Broncos since the moment he was drafted, No. 98 overall back in 2016, and in his first 6 seasons in the NFL, he accumulated 21 interceptions, 49 passes defended and 3.5 sacks, and as good as this defence has been in 2022, they've certainly missed his leadership and presence at the back end.

Simmons was injured in the first week of the season, and would miss a month of action, and now after playing in three straight games, he'll be out yet again, and with every game from here on out being considered must-win for the Broncos if they want to make a run at an AFC Wild Card spot, this is a major loss.
