Broncos list Riley Moss as questionable against Seahawks; Surtain and Hufanga out
Denver's final injury report leaves cornerback Riley Moss's availability uncertain for Thursday's game against Seattle, while ruling out two other defensive backs.
The Denver Broncos listed cornerback Riley Moss as questionable for Thursday's game against the Seattle Seahawks after their final injury report on October 14. Denver ruled out cornerback Pat Surtain II and safety Talanoa Hufanga, leaving Moss's availability uncertain as the Broncos prepare to host Seattle.
Riley Moss's status after three limited practices
Moss was listed as a limited participant on all three of Denver's practice reports this week. He sustained a rib injury against San Francisco in Week 4 and missed the Broncos' Week 5 win over the Chargers. His questionable designation leaves open whether he can return against Seattle.
Denver's first two participation reports were estimates because the team did not hold a full practice. Its final injury report lists Moss's game designation but does not settle whether he will play Thursday.
Surtain and Hufanga ruled out against Seattle
Surtain and Hufanga were each listed as nonparticipants on all three practice reports. Both have ankle injuries, and Denver ruled them out for the Seahawks game. Their absences leave the Broncos without a cornerback and a safety while Moss's status remains undecided.
Safety Brandon Jones, defensive lineman Sai'vion Jones and guard Ben Powers were full participants Wednesday. Denver assigned none of them a game status; its report says a player without a status will be available. Their listed injuries were foot, shoulder and biceps, respectively.
Seattle's reported absences and Thursday kickoff
Mile High Report's Wednesday injury account listed Seattle running back Zach Charbonnet out with a knee injury. It also listed linebackers Chazz Surratt and Drake Thomas out with calf and ankle injuries, respectively. Those are Seattle statuses as reported by Mile High Report.
The same account said Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba progressed from limited participation earlier in the week to full participation Wednesday. Defensive lineman Leonard Williams and quarterback Drew Lock remained limited participants Wednesday, according to Mile High Report.
The Broncos are scheduled to host the Seahawks Thursday at 6:15 p.m. Mountain Time, with the game on Prime Video, according to Denver's injury report.
