ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- In a season when the Denver Broncos haven't gotten much good news on the injury front, consider their collective fingers crossed for having linebacker Von Miller and wide receiver Jerry Jeudy in the lineup against Washington on Sunday.
Miller, who suffered a left ankle injury last Thursday and has not practiced this week, said Thursday that he's still confident he will play Sunday. Jeudy, who suffered an ankle injury in the regular-season opener, is poised to be activated off injured reserve.
Jeudy, who has practiced for the last two weeks, will provide some needed big-play pop for an offense that's once again in the bottom third of the league in scoring -- 24th at 20.
