News

  • Sheds injury designation

    Browning (back) was a full participant in practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Browning was unable to play in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, but he should be good to go Week 18 against the Chargers. His ability to play should be a boost to the team's linebacker corps.

  • Unable to suit up Sunday

    Browning (back) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: After missing the first two practices to open Week 17 prep before logging a limited session Friday due to a back issue, Browning ultimately won't dress for Sunday's contest versus Kansas City. With six other Broncos' linebackers currently on injured reserve, Nik Bonitto, Alex Singleton, Josey Jewell and Jonathon Cooper are slated to start this weekend.

  • Status up in air for Week 17

    Browning (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Browning logged one tackle while playing his usual share of defensive snaps during last Sunday's loss to the Rams, though it appears he came away from the contest with a back injury. This issue then kept the 23-year-old linebacker sidelined during practice Wednesday and Thursday before he worked his way back in a limited fashion Friday. Browning has played around two-thirds of Denver's defensive snaps in each of the last six games, so his potential absence could leave both Nik Bonitto and…read more

  • Ready to play

    Browning (hip) is active Sunday against the Raiders, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning hasn't played since Week 7 against the Jets, but he'll now return to beef up the team's linebacker corps in a divisional matchup with Las Vegas. His return should be a boost to the entire defense Sunday.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Browning (hip) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Raiders, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning was limited during each practice of Week 11 prep but still has a chance to return to action following a two-game absence. Before suffering the injury, the linebacker recorded 11 tackles, 2.5 sacks and one interception across seven appearances.

  • Ruled out for Sunday

    Browning (hip) will not play in Sunday's game against the Titans, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning was expected to be sidelined several weeks after straining his hip during Denver's Week 7 loss to the Jets. The 23-year-old was considered day-to-day coming off the Broncos' Week 9 bye week and did not practice leading up to Sunday's game against Tennessee. As a result, Browning's timeline for a return is still unclear, and his next chance to play will come versus the Raiders on Sunday, Nov. 20. With Randy Gregory (knee) still on IR, expect Denver's pass rush to be short-handed against…read more

  • Doesn't practice Wednesday

    Browning (hip) missed Wednesday's practice, reports.

    Analysis: Browning suffered a hip injury Week 7 against the Jets and did not play the following week against Jacksonville. The Broncos just came off their bye week, but Browning hasn't progressed enough to return to practice just yet. However, head coach Nathaniel Hackett has said that the linebacker is day-to-day, so he still has a chance to get some reps Thursday and/or Friday in an attempt to play Sunday versus Tennessee.

  • Progressing with hip injury

    Coach Nathaniel Hackett said Monday that Browning (hip) is day-to-day ahead of Sunday's game at Tennessee, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Browning missed Denver's last game, but with the benefit of a Week 9 bye, there at least appears to be a chance that's the only game he'll need to miss as he recovers from a hip injury he suffered in Week 7 versus the Jets. If Browning is forced to sit out another week though, Nik Bonitto and Jonathon Cooper should continue to see increased reps.

  • Unavailable for Week 8

    Browning (hip) has been ruled out for the Broncos' Week 8 matchup with the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Browning will miss Sunday's contest, but that doesn't come as a surprise considering he is expected to miss multiple weeks while nursing a hip injury. In his absence, Jonathan Cooper will likely step into a starting role at weakside linebacker.

  • Multi-week absence expected

    Browning (hip) is expected to be sidelined for several weeks, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Further testing on the injury Browning sustained in the Week 7 loss to the Jets revealed that a multi-week absence should be expected. The Broncos are scheduled to face the Jaguars in London on Sunday, and it remains to be seen whether Browning will even travel with the team for that game. Jonathan Cooper will likely be ticketed for an expanded role while Browning's sidelined.

  • Slated for MRI

    Browning (hip) will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of his injury, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Browning was diagnosed with a strained hip after exiting Sunday's loss to the Jets, and his testing should help provide a better idea of the severity of the issue. If he's unavailable for next Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Jonathon Cooper should see increased playing time.

  • Ruled out with hip injury

    Browning has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jets due to a hip injury, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: Browning sustained his hip injury in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup, and he'll be unavailable down the stretch. Jonathon Cooper should see additional work for the Broncos to close out the game.

  • Produces full practice Thursday

    Browning (wrist) practiced fully Thursday, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: The 240-pounder sustained a wrist injury during the team's Week 5 loss to the Colts, but his ability to practice in full Thursday suggests he'll be ready to suit up for Monday's game against the Chargers. With fellow starter Randy Gregory (knee) on IR until at least Week 10, Browning should find himself in Denver's starting lineup for the time being.

  • Considered day-to-day

    Browning (wrist) is considered day-to-day after leaving Thursday's game against the Colts, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Browning sustained a wrist injury Thursday but underwent X-rays after the game that came back negative, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. He'll undergo an MRI, but he appears to have avoided a significant injury for now. The 2021 third-rounder will have a week and a half to rest prior to the Broncos' Week 6 matchup against the Chargers on Oct. 17.

  • Questionable to return

    Browning is questionable to return to Thursday's contest with a wrist injury, Kyle Newman of The Denver Post reports.

    Analysis: Browning was forced to start Thursday's game due to Randy Gregory's knee injury. The linebacker suffered a wrist injury in the fourth quarter and will likely be relieved by either Nik Bonitto or Jonathan Kongbo.

  • Thrust into starting role

    Browning is expected to enter the starting lineup with Randy Gregory (knee) on IR, Troy Renck of Denver7.com reports.

    Analysis: Browning looks set to start along Bradley Chubb while Aaron Patrick handles a backup role starting Thursday versus Indianapolis. Gregory is expected to miss between four and six weeks after undergoing knee surgery, making Browning an option worth monitoring in deep IDP formats.

  • Upgrades to full participant

    Browning (knee) practiced in full Thursday.

    Analysis: Browning suffered a right knee injury in Sunday's contest against the 49ers, but his ability to return as a full participant during Thursday's session indicates he's moved past the issue. The second-year linebacker figures to serve as a rotational piece within Denver's linebacker corps Sunday against the Raiders.

  • Questionable to return

    Browning (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against San Francisco, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning sustained a right knee injury shortly before halftime Sunday, but he was seen on an exercise bike to begin the second half. If he's unable to return, Nik Bonitto and Aaron Patrick are candidates to see additional work.

  • Sustains apparent right knee injury

    Browning suffered an apparent right knee injury late in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the 49ers, Kyle Newman of The Denver Post reports.

    Analysis: Browning went down with under a minute remaining in the first half Sunday, and he had his right knee looked at by trainers heading into halftime. If he's unable to return, it's possible that Nik Bonitto and Aaron Patrick see a slight uptick in playing time.

  • Returns from protocols

    Browning was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning has played a large role for the Broncos this season, as their linebacker unit has dealt with various injuries throughout the year. Now mostly healthy, Browning will likely fill a rotational role in the unit Saturday against the Chiefs.

    Browning (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Ben Swanson of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning tested positive for the virus, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. With Stephen Weatherly, Jonathon Cooper and Bradley Chubb also on the COVID list, plus Kenny Young (concussion) questionable, the Broncos' linebacker depth will be tested Sunday against the Chargers.

  • Will play Sunday

    Browning (illness) will play Sunday against the Raiders, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning was considered questionable after being a limited participant in practice Friday. However, he's recovered enough from his non-COVID-related illness to suit up Sunday against the Raiders. With Kenny Young (concussion) out, Browning should step into a significant role in the Broncos' linebacker unit.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Browning has been added to the injury report ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Raiders due to an illness, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official website reports.

    Analysis: Browning was a limited participant at Friday's practice due to his non-COVID-related illness. His status for Sunday will likely be determined by how he is feeling closer to kickoff.

  • Records 10 tackles in loss

    Browning recorded 10 tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 15-10 loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: Browning's 10 total tackles were a team-high in the contest, as well as being his most tackles in a game this season. The rookie linebacker is having a solid first season in Denver's defense. Browning will look to improve upon this impressive performance when the Broncos square off against the Raiders in Week 16.

  • Records eight tackles

    Browning recorded eight tackles (seven solo) in the Broncos' 22-9 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Browning's eight total tackles for the Denver defense were second to only Kenny Young in the contest. Over his last two games, the rookie linebacker has 15 total tackles. With a Week 14 matchup against a struggling Lions offense, Browning has a good opportunity to play an impactful role on defense and improve upon his recent performance.

  • Listed as full participant

    Browning (back) was listed as a full participant on Thursday's injury report, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning sustained a back injury in the Broncos' Week 10 loss to the Eagles, but it appears as though he'll be back in action during Sunday's matchup against the Chargers. He's racked up 16 tackles (nine solo) across his first eight appearances of the season.

  • Won't return Sunday

    Browning (back) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: This doesn't come as much of a surprise since Browning came into the game questionable with a back injury and seemingly aggravated it early in the game. He'll have two weeks to get right with the Broncos on bye in Week 11.

    Published: Sun, Nov 14 at 3:43pm by Rotowire.com

  • Leaves in first quarter

    Browning (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Philadelphia.

    Analysis: Well, that didn't last long. Browning came into the game questionable after dealing with a back injury in practice during the week and left before the first frame had even been completed. Stephen Weatherly and Josey Jewell will likely see extra snaps until the 22-year-old can return.

    Published: Sun, Nov 14 at 1:58pm by Rotowire.com

  • Will play Sunday

    Browning (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Listed as questionable

    Browning (back) has drawn a questionable tag ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Browning popped up on the injury report Thursday after missing practice due to a back issue. He returned in limited fashion Friday, which is certainly a positive sign. However, he will still have to see how his back is feeling closer to kickoff Sunday before the team makes a final decision on his status.

  • Plays big role

    Browning recorded eight tackles (five solo) in the Broncos' 17-10 win over Washington on Sunday.

    Analysis: Browning has had a rough rookie season while dealing with multiple injuries, but the 2021 third-selection played 97 percent of the snaps Sunday in his first career start. Browning will try to follow up with another successful effort in Week 9 against the Cowboys.

  • Full participant in practice

    Browning (concussion) was listed as a full participant for the Broncos' practice Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning first suffered his head injury in Week 6 against the Raiders. The linebacker was unable to suit up in Week 7, but he appears on track to play in Week 8 after logging a full practice Wednesday. Browning cleared concussion protocols earlier in the week and will be able to play against Washington on Sunday barring any setbacks.

  • Returning to practice

    Browning (concussion) was cleared to return to practice Tuesday, Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post reports.

    Analysis: Browning suffered a concussion in a Oct. 17 contest against the Raiders. He was then ruled out for the Broncos Oct. 21 game against the Browns on a short week. Now that Browning has been cleared, he'll hope to return in Week 8 against Washington.

  • Ruled out for Week 7

    Browning (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Browns, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning exited Sunday's loss to the Raiders with a concussion, and he'll be unable to play following Denver's short week of practice. The 22-year-old has played mainly on special teams this year, so his absence shouldn't significantly impact the team's defensive plans.

    Published: Mon, Oct 18 at 10:31am by Rotowire.com

  • Won't return Sunday

    Browning has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Raiders with a concussion.

    Analysis: Browning's absence leaves the Broncos down one of their special-teams options. His availability for Week 7 is also in jeopardy, as the Broncos next play Thursday at Cleveland.

  • Evaluated for possible concussion

    Browning is being evaluated for a possible concussion suffered in Sunday's game against the Raiders.

    Analysis: Browning's return will be uncertain and everything will depend on the assessment by the medical staff. Micah Kiser could be a candidate to play some of his snaps in case Browning doesn't return to action.

  • Slated to play Sunday

    Browning (back) will play Sunday against the Steelers, George Stoia III of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Browning's reps in practice were capped Wednesday and Thursday, but he logged a full session Friday and won't carry an injury designation into Week 5. The 22-year-old has played just four defensive snaps this season and is unlikely to see significant playing time against Pittsburgh.

  • Inactive for Week 4

    Browning (back) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Browning didn't practice Friday, so his status for Week 4 isn't a surprise. The rookie has only played four defensive snaps this season, so his absence shouldn't affect Denver's defensive rotations.

  • Returns from PUP list

    Browning (lower leg) passed a physical examination and was activated from the PUP list Monday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Browning has been sidelined for the first few weeks of camp after suffering a lower-leg injury during OTAs, but he's now back at practice for the Broncos. It's unclear if the third-round rookie will receive enough practice reps to get up to game speed for Saturday's preseason matchup with the Seahawks.

  • Struggling with rehab

    Browning (lower leg) had a setback during his recovery and does not have a timetable to return, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Browning was reported to be close to returning a week ago, but it appears he has suffered a setback during his recovery. Head coach Vic Fangio said the 2021 third-round pick "is a little stuck" and that he is not sure when he'll be back. During the combine, the rookie posted a 4.55 40-yard dash at 245 pounds, and could emerge as an every-down linebacker in the NFL.

  • Expected back at practice soon

    Browning (lower leg) is expected to resume practicing this week, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: Browning is recovering from a lower leg injury suffered during OTAs, but it looks like it will only be a matter of days before the Broncos activate him from the PUP list. It's unclear how much playing time the rookie third-round pick will earn right off the back, but in college Browning did show off the skill set necessary to develop into an every-down player at the NFL level.

  • Placed on PUP list

    Browning (lower leg) was placed on the preseason PUP list Saturday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Browning suffered a lower leg injury in OTAs in early June and will be unable to practice to begin training camp. It's not yet clear when the 2021 third-rounder will be able to return to action.

  • Picks up leg injury

    Browning won't participate in OTAs the rest of the week due to a lower leg injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 22-year-old apparently suffered the injury during rookie minicamp in mid-May, and it's not much of a surprise to see Denver showing caution with their rookie third-round pick. The specifics of the injury remain unclear, but Browning will have nearly two months to recover before the start of training camp.
