Broncos injuries: WR Courtland Sutton did not practice Wednesday

Broncos WR Courtland Sutton and OLB Baron Browning were both held out of Wednesday’s practice due to concussion protocol.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (concussion) remains in the concussion protocol and did not practice Wednesday, according to the team’s injury report.

The Broncos are making a quarterback change this week, switching from Russell Wilson to Jarrett Stidham. If Sutton is not able to play against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, Stidham’s top remaining receivers will be Jerry Jeudy, Marvin Mims, Lil’Jordan Humphrey and Brandon Johnson.

Denver also has four wide receivers available on the practice squad: Tre’Quan Smith, David Sills, Phillip Dorsett and Michael Bandy.

Elsewhere on the injury front, outside linebacker Baron Browning (concussion) and tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring/foot) are also sidelined with injuries.
