Here’s a look at some of the best photos from a Week 11 game between the Tennessee Titans and Minnesota Vikings — a game the Titans lost, 23-13.
Broncos inactives: Zach Wilson, Brandon Jones (abdomen), Kris Abrams-Draine, Frank Crum, Calvin Throckmorton, Greg Dulcich, Eni Uwazurike.
The Denver Broncos have announced their list of seven inactive players for Sunday’s showdown with the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11 of the 2024 NFL season.
The Broncos’ inactive players today are quarterback Zach Wilson*, safety Brandon Jones (abdomen), cornerback Kris Abrams-Draine, offensive tackle Frank Crum, offensive lineman Calvin Throckmorton, tight end Greg Dulcich and defensive lineman Eyioma Uwazurike.
With Jones sidelined, Devon Key is set to play across from P.J. Locke at safety.
*Technically, Wilson is still available to play as the team’s emergency third-string quarterback behind starter Bo Nix and primary backup Jarrett Stidham, but he’s on the inactive list and does not count against the game-day roster. Wilson can play if both Nix and Stidham are injured.
With the exception of Wilson, these inactive players are members of the 53-man roster who are not eligible to play against the Falcons. They will be reactivated on Monday.
Sunday’s game will be regionally televised on Fox (view the TV map). Playing at home, the Broncos are considered slight favorites in Week 11.

Here’s a look at the Broncos’ updated depth chart for Sunday’s game against the Falcons.
After making two roster moves earlier this week, the Denver Broncos have updated their depth chart ahead of Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons.
The Broncos waived safety Keidron Smith from the 53-man roster on Tuesday. To fill Smith’s old spot on the active roster, Denver promoted fullback Michael Burton from the practice squad on Wednesday.
Smith was then elevated from the practice squad to the game-day roster along with linebacker Zach Cunningham on Saturday.

The Broncos will have six games remaining on their schedule after today’s clash with the Falcons.
The Denver Broncos schedule continues today with a home game against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11 of the 2024 NFL season.
Denver will play eight home games at Empower Field at Mile High Stadium this year and nine games on the road. Because the league has an unbalanced 17-game schedule, the NFC and AFC rotate between having an extra home game. This year, the NFC gets a ninth home game.
The Broncos are led by head coach Sean Payton with rookie Bo Nix serving as their starting quarterback this fall.
