Trevor Siemian Injury: Updates on Broncos QB’s Foot and Return

The rookie Janovich injured his foot on the first play of the game Sunday night against Kansas City when he caught a short screen pass from quarterback Trevor Siemian and was tackled for a loss. Miller is having his best National Football League season and leads the National Football League in sacks (12.5) and total QB pressures following a three-sack, 10-pressure, 10-tackle game against Kansas City last Sunday.

Yet, after Derek Wolfe sacked Alex Smith for a 7-yard loss on first down, the strength of Denver’s team suddenly couldn’t find the game-saving plays that have defined them as one of the best clutch defenses ever.

The Chiefs bend-but-don’t-break defense broke a few too many times against the Broncos, surrendering long scoring plays that almost spelled disaster. “It will be good for both of them over the long haul”. Neither are we. We’re excited to get a chance after two away games to come back and play at home.

“That’s the biggest thing I have to battle with, proving that I’m worth more than what they offered me and they shouldn’t have let me go”, Jackson said.

The Jags fell at Buffalo last Sunday 28-21 for their sixth straight defeat, dropping them to 2-9 on the season. For us to have the season that we’re having, at 2-9, it is frustrating. I knew that I could have played better.

Miller is a Defensive Player of the Year candidate and leads the league with 12.5 sacks.

Siemian remains in the walking boot, but coach Gary Kubiak said his quarterback is still day-to-day and hasn’t ruled him out for Sunday’s game.

Yes, linebacker Von Miller is risky. Of course, Broncos fans hoped it would/could happen, but the type of guts and playmaking ability late in the game that Trevor Siemian showed is the kind of play the Broncos want to see from their young quarterback for a full four quarters.

The prospect of adding that to the offensive mix right now is exciting, but Lynch knows the most important thing from his first start was not any individual rep.

“No, we’re going up by eight there”, said Kubiak, who sent Brandon McManus out for the extra point that made it 24-16.

PLUCKING BRONCOS: The Jaguars have signed a free agent from Denver in each of the last three seasons, and only defensive tackle Malik Jackson has panned out.

Jackson got off to a slow start with Jacksonville but he has 3.0 sacks in his last two games.
