DENVER -- The Denver Broncos have not played a game without Matt Paradis at center since the 2014 season, and now they might have to finish out whatever becomes of this season without him after he left Sunday's game against the Houston Texans with a lower leg injury.
Paradis suffered a fractured right fibula, coach Vance Joseph said after the Broncos' 19-17 loss.
"He's going to be out for a while," Joseph said.
Paradis suffered the injury with just under a minute remaining in the first half when he was rolled up on during an incomplete pass by quarterback Case Keenum.
