Final prep before wheels up 🏈

Quinn Meinerz and Nate Adkins were full participants in today’s practice and will play on Sunday

Quinn Meinerz returned to practice Friday and is cleared to play for Sunday’s game. Only active/roster player who will be unavailable is TE Lucas Krull, who popped onto the injury report today with a foot injury. Krull was a healthy scratch in Week 4.

Outside of Lucas Krull, every other Bronco on the active roster will play on Sunday against the Eagles.

Lucas Krull is officially ruled OUT for Sunday’s game against the Eagles with a foot injury.

Darren Rizzi stated he has a lot of confidence in Marvin Mims even after the bobble last week: “I’m pretty confident with Marvin” Added he’s been getting extra reps in the last few weeks

Darren Rizzi stated the Broncos have made a big emphasis this week on field goal and punt protection because of his good the Eagles have been at blocking them

Vance Joseph said Nik Bonitto and Garett Bolles do a great job getting each other better. They talk after practice to give each other tips.

Good news: Quinn Meinerz practiced today after missing yesterday’s practice with an illness. He should be good to go Sunday.

Lucas Krull was not at practice today and is expected to not play on Sunday.

Nakobe Dean’s return awaits but Dallas Goedert, Jalen Carter, Lane Johnson and Adoree’ Jackson are good to go for the #Eagles against the #Broncos.

As a lifelong Broncos fan that married into the Eagles being my NFC team, this thread warms my heart 😊

Engram needs to make impact this week for #Broncos to upset #Eagles

"We hold ourselves accountable. We have to be able to take these big games and come together on it." 1-on-1 with @JonathonCooper7 ⤵️

Garett Bolles and Mike McGlinchey are the two best pass blocking tackles in the entire NFL according to QB pressure percentage, per @NextGenStats. Quinn Meiner is the BEST guard in the entire NFL in QB pressure percentage as well. Pretty incredible protection for Bo Nix. (h/t @Tyler_Gorse_)

Alex Singleton returns to Philadelphia this weekend after playing with the Eagles for three years earlier in his career. Singleton is currently tied for the 7th-most tackles in the entire NFL with 38.

Yep. Work isn’t “family.” Family is family.

Broncos edge rusher Jonathon Cooper, on the Eagles' "tush push": "I mean, we all know why it's difficult to defend. We've seen the tape. Obviously, they've perfected it, to a certain degree. But ... the football game ain't the tush push ... The game is the zones and the play-action. The passes and stopping the run and getting after the passer and stuff. So if I see a tush push, I mean, it's whatever."
