Injuries at key positions put a strain on Broncos’ offense, defense

As the Broncos get ready for joint practices with the 49ers later this week, they are down two critical positions for Rich Scangarello’s offense - tight end and fullback - and suffering at one of VIc Fangio’s favorite defensive positions - linebacker.

After a season-ending ACL tear for Austin Fort, an undrafted tight end who was making a strong case to be on the roster, and a two-month-ish recovery for Andy Janovich after injuring his pectoral muscle in Thursday’s game, the Broncos will be moving down the list to find guys to fill in.
