Broncos injuries: Baron Browning trending toward not playing

Broncos OLB Baron Browning (foot) missed practice again on Thursday, putting his status in doubt for Sunday’s game against the Bucs.

Denver Broncos outside linebacker Baron Browning (foot) did not practice again on Thursday after previously missing Wednesday’s session. The 25-year-old pass rusher appears to be trending toward not playing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3.

Denver added more depth at outside linebacker this week by promoting Dondrea Tillman to the active roster and signing Andrew Farmer to the practice squad, perhaps early signs that Browning’s status was in doubt.

Elsewhere on the injury front, safety JL Skinner (ankle) was also held out Thursday while safety Brandon Jones (foot) and defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers (concussion) returned on a limited basis.
