Broncos injury report: Tyler Badie ruled out for Raiders game

Denver Broncos running back Tyler Badie (back) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

The Broncos have not yet announced if Badie will be placed on injured reserve, but such a move could arrive on Saturday. If he does go on IR, Badie will have to sit out at least four games before being eligible to return.

With Badie sidelined, rookie Blake Watson is likely set to make his NFL debut against the Raiders behind Javonte Williams and Jaleel McLaughlin. Audric Estime (ankle) will be eligible to return from IR next week.

Elsewhere on the injury front, safety JL Skinner (ankle) has been cleared to play after missing the team’s last two games.
