Broncos RG Quinn Meinerz taken to hospital out of precaution after elevated heart rate, source says

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Broncos right guard Quinn Meinerz exited Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers because of concern about chest tightness and an elevated heart rate, a source told The Denver Post on Sunday.

Meinerz was transported to a hospital out of precaution but was deemed to be stable.

The third-year guard is in the midst of his best season as a professional. He missed a handful of snaps due to a shoulder injury against Houston last week but otherwise has been healthy this year.

Second-year man Luke Wattenberg, a fifth-round draft pick in 2022, replaced Meinerz in Denver’s lineup.
