Broncos cancel practice because of COVID-19 concerns, hope to be on field Friday

The Broncos cancelled practice Thursday for the first time this year due to COVID-19 concerns.

Around 11:30 a.m., coach Vic Fangio said the Broncos had “some positives (earlier) today … some may be false positives (so) we’re working through that. … I just felt we needed to hit the pause button (and) get our hands around what we’ve got as far as the numbers and roster.”

On Wednesday, the Broncos placed receiver Tim Patrick, safety Caden Sterns, injured offensive tackle Calvin Anderson and practice squad receiver Tyrie Cleveland on the COVID-19/reserve list. Nose tackle Mike Purcell was placed on the list Monday.
