Broncos injuries: JL Skinner held out of practice again

Denver Broncos safety JL Skinner (ankle) missed practice again on Thursday, marking the fifth straight practice he has been held out dating back to last week. Barring a quick recovery turnaround, the safety seems unlikely to play against the New York Jets on Sunday.

Elsewhere on the injury report, tight end/fullback Nate Adkins (shoulder) was limited Thursday and wide receiver Josh Reynolds (Achilles) was upgraded to a full participant.

The Broncos elevated safety Tanner McCalister from the practice squad to the game-day roster when Skinner was ruled out last week. If Skinner is not able to play against the Jets, McCalister will likely be a candidate to get called up again in Week 4.

Denver linebacker Alex Singleton (ACL) does not appear on the injury report because he was placed on injured reserve on Wednesday, ending his season.

The Broncos will practice again on Friday and then release a final injury report with game statuses for Sunday’s showdown with the Jets.
