Denver Broncos running back Mike Boone will miss several weeks after suffering a quad injury during one of the team’s joint practice against the Minnesota Vikings. Boone will reportedly miss 4-6 weeks.
This timeline indicates that Boone could either return between Week 1 against the New York Giants and Week 3 against the New York Jets.
Boone was projected by many to make the 53-man roster in place of Royce Freeman, who some expected to get traded. Boone, signed in free agency after playing for the Minnesota Vikings, had impressed in training camp.
