The Broncos are expected to place another starting lineman on injured reserve and will fill his roster spot with a tight end. Right guard Ron Leary missed the last two games with a back injury and will use the remainder of the season to recover, according to an NFL source.
Taking his spot on the 53-man roster is Matt LaCosse, a 6-foot-6, 255-pound tight end plucked from the New York Giants’ practice squad.
