Next men up: Allen Barbre, Zaire Anderson step into bigger roles

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Thursday's injuries to inside linebacker Corey Nelson and right tackle Donald Stephenson robbed the Broncos of some depth. But they didn't leave them staggering.

"We have a lot of depth in this system, so when somebody does go down, I think we have a lot of quality players that can step up," inside linebacker Todd Davis said.

Here's how they plan to fill in for Nelson, who is out for the season with an elbow injury, and Stephenson, who is week-to-week with a calf injury and will be unable to replace Menelik Watson, who will sit out Sunday's game because of a calf injury of his own.
