Moving to the top of the AFC West via their latest dramatic comeback win, the Broncos saw a key defensive reinforcement emerge when Patrick Surtain resurfaced after a three-week absence. Pat Bryant went down in the same game — a loss in San Francisco — but Denver may have the second-year wide receiver back in Week 9.
Bryant is back at practice Wednesday, with 9News’ Mike Klis noting the Broncos designated the receiver for return. Bryant will have 21 days to be activated from IR. While the Broncos went week-to-week with Surtain, they quickly placed Bryant on IR.
