Broncos breathe sigh of relief as Evan Engram and Nate Adkins trend towards playing against Colts

The Denver Broncos were facing potential turmoil at the tight end position just days before their Week 2 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. However, a wave of optimism swept through the organization following Thursday’s practice session.

Evan Engram’s Positive Progress

Evan Engram, who exited the season opener nursing a calf injury, returned to practice for the second consecutive day. Initially, there were concerns that this injury could sideline him for several games. Thankfully, the prognosis has shifted positively. The injury appears to be more of a bruise rather than a strain, allowing Engram to remain in the lineup for Sunday’s game.

Last week, Engram’s performance was modest, with just three catches for 21 yards against the Titans. The Broncos are hopeful that he can elevate his game and contribute more significantly as they prepare to face off against the Colts.

Nate Adkins Shows Encouraging Signs

In addition to Engram’s recovery, there is promising news regarding Nate Adkins. The tight end participated in the early portion of practice, marking his first action since sustaining an injury. This development is a positive sign for Adkins, indicating a potential return to game action sooner rather than later.

With both tight ends trending towards playing, the Broncos’ offense could see a boost as they aim for a strong showing against Indianapolis this weekend. The team will continue to monitor their progress leading up to the game, but for now, the mood is decidedly more upbeat in Denver.
