Broncos defensive end Jared Crick was taken off the field on a cart after suffering an apparent lower-body injury Monday morning. After being helped off the cart, Crick gingerly walked from the edge of the field into the locker room with the help of trainers. It was the second time in two practices a defensive end left practice with an injury.
Derek Wolfe suffered a sprained ankle during practice on Saturday. Crick’s injury, which occurred during a run play in 11-on-11 drills, is another hit to a defense that is dealing with a rash of injuries.
Defensive lineman Billy Winn sustained a season-ending knee injury during the Broncos’ preseason victory over Chicago on Thursday.
