Baron Browning Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Broncos Edge Baron Browning missed practice Wednesday and Thursday with a concussion. That makes him look likely to miss Sunday's game against the Chargers. Fortunately for Denver, Edge Nik Bonitto appears to be trending toward returning after missing the past two games. he followed a limited Wednesday workout with a full practice Thursday. Missing Browning won't be good, but the swap shouldn't mean a significant difference for the Broncos team defense in a high-upside matchup with Easton Stick and the Chargers.

The Broncos are releasing veteran Edge Randy Gregory. That's not an especially impactful IDP move itself. Gregory has just 9 tackles and 1 sack through four games. His playing time dipped the past two weeks, from 64%+ the first two games to 47% and 46% in the last two. The move does remove a hurdle from the outlooks of Nik Bonitto and Jonathon Cooper, who have each seen increases in playing time and good production through four games. Both sit top 15 among D-linemen (depending on your format). Denver does have Frank Clark and Baron Browing approaching injury returns, which will challenge the roles of Cooper and Bonitto. But we'll wait to see how that all shakes out before downgrading the guys currently succeeding. Cooper and Bonitto have climbed up our rest-of-season DL rankings and sit especially high in our Week 5 DL rankings, ahead of a meeting with the Jets.

The Broncos have placed Edge Baron Browning on the active/PUP list to start training camp. He had arthroscopic knee surgery late in the spring to treat a partially torn meniscus. We'll see whether Browning will be ready for the start of the regular season. Denver recently signed veteran Edge Frank Clark to reinforce a group that will start Randy Gregory on one side. Jonathon Cooper and Nik Bonitto also stand as options.

Broncos S Justin Simons (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans. He missed Wednesday's practice before returning for 2 limited days. We'll see about his status Sunday morning. Denver ruled EDGE Baron Browning (hip) out for the game.

Broncos S Justin Simmons (knee) and EDGE Baron Browning (hip) missed Wednesday's practice, though each was reportedly working on a side field. HC Nathaniel Hackett deemed each player day-to-day afterward, though it's never a good sign to miss the 1st practice coming out of a bye week. EDGE Randy Gregory also worked on a side field but remains on IR. He has been out since Week 4 with a knee injury. "We're going to start working him in, and we're hoping he gets back sooner rather than later," Hackett said, according to the team website. "He's really doing well in the rehab room."

Broncos LB Josey Jewell is off the final injury report for Week 8. He missed the past 2 games after leaving Week 5 early with a knee injury. Jewell remained limited the 1st 2 practices this week but put in a full Friday and carries no game designation. He's fine as a low-LB2 or LB3 for fantasy football use this week and has moved up our Week 8 IDP rankings. LB Alex Singleton does not belong in IDP lineups with Jewell back. Denver also ruled EDGE Baron Browning (hip) out vs. the Jaguars.

Broncos EDGE Randy Gregory is having arthroscopic surgery on his right knee to trim the meniscus. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports he'll miss "anywhere from two to six weeks." That will be a significant loss for the Denver pass rush. Baron Browning figures to benefit the most. He played a season-high 43 snaps in Sunday's loss to the Raiders and also saw elevated snap share back in Week 1, when Gregory had his playing time limited coming off a different injury. Browning doesn't have a QB hit yet this year.

The Broncos on Friday placed LB Baron Browning and EDGE players Bradley Chubb and Jonathon Cooper on the COVID list. They'll miss Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Broncos LB Baron Browning (illness), DE Dre'Mont Jones (foot), S Kareem Jackson (back) and DE Shelby Harris (ankle) are active for today's game against the Raiders.

Broncos LB Baron Browning left Sunday's loss to the Eagles early with a back injury. Browning showed up on Thursday's injury report with a back issue that kept him out and then limited his Friday participation. HC Vic Fangio said after the game that he aggravated the existing back issue, according to the team website.

Broncos OLB Malik Reed (hip), CB Patrick Surtain II (knee), LB Baron Browning (back) and DE Shelby Harris (illness) are active for today's game against the Eagles. All entered the day questionable.

Broncos LB Baron Browning (back), OLB Malik Reed (hip), CB Patrick Surtain II (knee) and DE Shelby Harris (illness) are questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles. HC Vic Fangio said Friday that he felt "good" about Browning's chances of playing. Browning popped up on the injury report Thursday, missing practice. But he returned for limited participation Friday. Harris returned for a limited Friday workout after missing the 1st 2 days and seems to be trending toward playing. Reed managed limited practices Thursday and Friday after sustaining his injury late in the Week 9 practice run and missing the win at Dallas. Surtain returned to a limited Friday practice, and Fangio said he'd need to look back over the tape of Surtain's practice to determine his status.
