Broncos vs Lions final injury update: Six players battling illness this week

As expected, the Denver Broncos will be without Adam Gotsis who has been placed on injured reserve, Ja’Wuan James and Ron Leary as the team hosts the Detroit Lions in Week 16. The bigger concern is the health of Dalton Risner who has been battling a bug this week.

If he isn’t able to go, Patrick Morris will take his spot at left guard in this game. The illness has spread to other players as well, with Kyle Peko, Connor McGovern, Austin Schlottmann, and even Drew Lock coming down with the bug.
