Broncos injuries: Nik Bonitto still sidelined

Denver Broncos outside linebacker Nik Bonitto (knee) missed practice again Thursday after previously sitting out Wednesday’s session. His chances of suiting up against the New England Patriots on Sunday seem slim.

Meanwhile, Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring/foot) also remains sidelined. Denver coach Sean Payton said earlier this week that he expects Dulcich to play again this season, but the tight end does not appear to be trending toward playing in Week 16.

The team’s complete Thursday injury report can be seen below (DNP = did not participate).

Player Wed Thur Fri Game Status
OLB Nik Bonitto (knee) DNP DNP
TE Greg Dulcich (hamstring/foot) DNP DNP

OLB Jonathon Cooper (ankle) Limited Full
OT Alex Palczewski (knee) Limited Full
DL Mike Purcell (rest) Not listed DNP
TE Chris Manhertz (rest) Not listed DNP

The Broncos will practice again on Friday before releasing a final injury report with game statuses for a Christmas Eve showdown against the Patriots.
