Brandon Krisztal first reported that Broncos OLB Shaq Barrett was not at OTAs due to a hip injury that could hold him out for a “significant” amount of time.
Krisztal admitted that Barrett’s timeline was unclear and he has an appointment scheduled with a doctor to determine the severity of the issue.
Broncos HC Vance Joseph has since confirmed (per Nicki Jhabvala) that Barrett does, in fact, have a hip injury and added that they should know more about it in the next week or so.
According to James Palmer, Barrett will miss OTAs but is expected to be back for training camp.
