Broncos vs. Washington injury report: Von Miller is ’50-50′ for Week 8

Broncos OLB Von Miller (ankle) is ’50-50′ for Sunday’s game against Washington and DL Mike Purcell (thumb) has been ruled out.

Denver Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller (ankle) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Washington Football Team. Broncos coach Vic Fangio said on KOA Radio on Friday that Miller is truly “50-50” to play in Week 8.

If Miller is not able to play on Sunday, rookie Jonathon Cooper and newly acquired edge defender Stephen Weatherly would be the candidates to start in his place.

Denver has ruled out defensive lineman Mike Purcell (thumb), and DeShawn Williams is expected to start in his place. The Broncos’ complete injury report for Week 8 will be added below when it becomes available.
