Broncos running back Javonte Williams could miss extended time following his early exit from Sunday’s 32–23 loss to the Raiders.
Williams was carted off the field after suffering a knee injury on the first play of the third quarter; the second-year back was unable to put weight on the knee before heading back to the locker room. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Sunday night the team fears Williams suffered a “serious” injury and is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Monday.
Rapoport noted that while the full extent of the injury has yet to be determined, there is “not a lot of optimism” surrounding the outcome.
