Okung was stretchered to an ambulance with an IV and taken away, according to a Broncos spokesman.
It was a tough night for the Broncos’ offensive line. Broncos QB Trevor Siemian, who was nursing a sore shoulder coming into the game, was hit eight times and sacked twice on 50 pass attempts.
One of those sacks resulted in a Chargers safety as Okung was called for holding in the end zone in the fourth quarter in the 21-13 loss.
