Week 7 injury report: Denver Broncos vs. Arizona Cardinals
Oct 17, 2018, 1:49 PM | Updated: 1:53 pm
A short turnover for the Arizona Cardinals (1-5) comes after a 27-17 road loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Four days later, they’ll be hosting the Denver Broncos (2-4) on Thursday Night Football.
Denver has dropped its last four games, the latest of which was a 23-20 defeat at the hands of the still-perfect Los Angeles Rams.
The two teams rank last (Denver, 161.3 yards) and second-to-last (Cardinals, 151.2) in terms of rushing yards allowed per game, but those enticing facts are blunted because both teams suffered losses on the offensive line on Sunday. The Broncos lost starting guard Ron Leary to a reported Achilles tear, while the Cardinals saw starting guards Justin Pugh and Mike Iupati, plus backup Jeremy Vujnovich, go down during their game.
