The Denver Broncos avoided a major injury blow from their Week 4 matchup with San Francisco, as second-year receiver Pat Bryant sustained an ankle sprain but is expected to miss only weeks. Bryant exited after a 31-yard play and did not return, while the team believes star cornerback Pat Surtain II also dodged the worst on a non-contact ankle injury. Bryant’s 3 receptions for 47 yards came before his departure, highlighting his role and the need for depth as the team plots next steps. Officials and coach comments indicate cautious optimism about Bryant’s rehab and return as the club refocuses on improving after the loss.
