Former University of Utah left tackle Garett Bolles was on his way to playing every offensive snap for the Denver Broncos against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday when a scary situation happened.

Bolles, the rookie first-round draft pick, went down with a left ankle injury during the third quarter of the Broncos’ 42-17 victory. The former Ute immediately signaled for trainers after going down on Jamaal Charles' run inside the red zone and left the field on a cart.
