Denver Broncos tight end Nate Adkins (knee) and defensive lineman D.J. Jones (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday as the team began preparing for a Week 14 showdown with the Las Vegas Raiders.
Adkins has missed the team’s last four games, but coach Sean Payton indicated last week that he might be able to return in time for the Raiders game. Jones injured his ankle during a 27-26 win over the Washington Commanders on Sunday Night Football in Week 13.
Elsewhere on the injury front, outside linebacker Jonah Elliss (hamstring) was back on the practice field after being held out against the Commanders. Denver’s complete Wednesday injury report will be added below when it becomes available later today.
