Broncos could be without offensive threats in Week 7
Sports Network | October 17, 2008
Englewood, CO (Sports Network) - Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Stokley missed practice for the third consecutive day after suffering a concussion in the team's Week 6 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Stokley, along with running backs Ryan Torain and Selvin Young and tight end Tony Scheffler, are all listed as questionable for Sunday's tilt against the New England Patriots.
Stokley has compiled 262 yards and two touchdowns on 24 receptions this season, while Scheffler, nursing a groin injury, has registered 259 yards and a pair of scores on 16 catches for the 4-2 Broncos.
Scheffler, Torain and Young were limited in practice over the past three days.
Young, the team's leader with 266 yards rushing on 47 carries, is struggling with a groin injury, while Torain, a rookie out of Arizona State, practiced for the first time this season after an elbow injury sidelined him in the preseason.
Though its offense has been hammered with injuries, Denver got some good news on the defensive side of the ball, as linebacker Boss Bailey was a full participant at practice for the second consecutive day and is listed as probable for Week 7.
