Bo Nix’s health leading up to the Broncos’ matchup against the Browns on Monday night is suddenly worth monitoring.
The rookie quarterback was listed by the team as a limited participant on Thursday due to a back injury. The injury report was an estimation since the team only held a walkthrough.
It’s unclear when Nix sustained the injury, but he was seen on the broadcast icing his back late in Denver’s victory over the Raiders. He completed 25 of 42 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns to be named the league’s rookie of the week for the third straight time. Defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers was also limited with a shoulder injury.
Defensive lineman Zach Allen (heel) was listed as a full participant, a good sign since he missed last week’s game and wore a walking boot on his right foot while sidelined. However, starting cornerback Riley Moss (knee) was listed as a non-participant.
