Broncos defensive lineman D.J. Jones did not practice for a second straight day this week after suffering a concussion in Sunday’s win over San Francisco, clouding his status for this weekend’s division game against Las Vegas.
Jones played just 13 snaps and then exited the game. He was put into the league’s concussion protocol, meaning he has several steps to pass through before he’s cleared to return to game action.
“With those head things, we want to make sure safety is the most important thing, so we just want to make sure he’s good throughout that process and as he (progresses) through it, we’ll find out if he can play,” head coach Nathaniel Hackett said.
