Elsewhere on the injury front, Broncos outside linebacker Jonathon Cooper (hamstring), safety P.J. Locke (concussion), offensive lineman Quinn Meinerz (hamstring) and outside linebacker Aaron Patrick (concussion) have all been ruled out for Week 5.

The Colts, meanwhile, have ruled out star running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle). That likely means Phillip Lindsay will be elevated from Indy’s practice squad to face off against his former team on Thursday.
Playing at home, the Broncos are considered 3.5-point favorites against the Colts this week, according to Tipico Sportsbook. Thursday’s game will be available to stream on Prime Video.
