There’s no secret the Denver Broncos were ravaged by injuries last season.
In fact, the biggest loss occurred before the season even started when the Broncos lost Tim Patrick in training camp to a season-ending knee injury.
As Denver general manager George Paton said this week at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis:
“That was a huge loss. You could argue one of the biggest losses of the season. When he got hurt that day, the whole building was deflated. You guys know Tim, what he brings every day: the leader, (a) really good player.
