Broncos receiver Tim Patrick sustained a right leg injury during practice Tuesday morning and was carted off for an MRI exam to diagnose the extent of the issue.
Patrick had just made a leaping catch in 11-on-11 work over cornerback Essang Bassey. Patrick landed fine on the turf, but then went down after his first move.
“A guy like Tim, who is such an amazing leader and has done everything you’ve asked, it breaks your heart because you love him,” coach Nathaniel Hackett said.
Early in practice, running back Damarea Crockett sustained a knee injury during special teams work.
