Broncos' Pat Surtain Returns to Practice

Broncos cornerback Pat Surtain II returned to practice Wednesday on a limited basis after missing two games with an ankle injury, offering a chance he could play Sunday against the Cardinals. Denver had reportedly been targeting the following week’s game against Kansas City for his return, but his practice progress could affect that timetable. The Broncos also brought linebacker Jonathon Cooper back to practice and opened running back Jonah Coleman’s 21-day window to return from injured reserve, while several other players remained sidelined. A separate injury analysis raised concerns about a possible Achilles or serious calf injury, but the practice reports describe Surtain’s issue as an ankle injury and do not confirm an Achilles diagnosis.
