Denver's crucial free agents Greenlaw and Engram ruled out for the Chargers contest
The Denver Broncos are set to face the Los Angeles Chargers this Sunday, but the team will be without two of their key free agent additions. Inside linebacker Dre Greenlaw and tight end Evan Engram will both be sidelined due to injuries.
Dre Greenlaw, who signed a three-year, $35 million contract with the Broncos in the offseason, has been battling a thigh injury. He played only two games last year due to a similar injury, and his absence will be a significant loss for the team. Greenlaw's absence means that the Broncos will be without one of their top defenders, as he was a crucial part of their linebacking corps.
Evan Engram, who signed a two-year, $23 million contract with the Broncos, will also miss Sunday's game due to a back injury. The tight end was intended to fill the 'joker' position, a coveted role that provides coach Sean Payton with positional flexibility. Engram's injury occurred during the Broncos' 29-28 loss at Indianapolis in Week 2, and he has only accumulated four receptions for a total of 33 yards in the current season.
Engram's contract was signed to provide the Broncos with a versatile option at tight end, and his absence will be felt in the team's passing game. The Broncos have struggled to find consistency in their passing game this season, and Engram's injury is a significant blow to their hopes of turning things around against the Chargers.
The Broncos have already faced their fair share of injuries this season, with Greenlaw missing the 2024 Super Bowl due to a torn Achilles. The team will need to rally together and find a way to overcome these challenges if they hope to come out on top against the Chargers.
The Denver Broncos will have to rely on their depth and resilience to overcome the loss of Greenlaw and Engram. The team has shown that they are capable of overcoming adversity, and they will need to do so once again if they hope to secure a victory against the Los Angeles Chargers.
In the meantime, fans will be keeping their fingers crossed and hoping for a speedy recovery for both Greenlaw and Engram. The team will need them back at full strength as soon as possible if they hope to make a run at the playoffs this season.
