The Broncos, donning blue jerseys for the first time since Week 7 against the Texans, had a couple of curveballs to add to their typical 46-man active game-day roster Sunday ahead of a big showdown with the Patriots.
The biggest news is that linebacker Todd Davis, who had been battling an oblique injury all week, is active and expected to start. Denver already ruled linebacker Brandon Marshall out with a hamstring injury Friday so they were hopeful not to miss both starting inside linebackers.
Davis may not take his full workload and run stopping linebacker Zaire Anderson is expected to play as well.
