Broncos List Talanoa Hufanga Questionable for Sunday Night Football Illness as Patrick Surtain II, Alex Singleton Return

Denver prepares contingency options at safety to safeguard depth.

Overview

  • Denver added safety Talanoa Hufanga to the injury report Sunday morning with an illness and listed him as questionable for the road game against Washington.
  • If Hufanga cannot play, the staff could turn to P.J. Locke, Devon Key or JL Skinner, with rookie Jahdae Barron also under consideration to line up alongside Brandon Jones.
  • Cornerback Patrick Surtain II and linebacker Alex Singleton are expected to be back in the lineup after returning to practice following recent absences.
  • Hufanga has been a high-impact addition with 76 tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble this season after a reported three-year, $39 million signing.
  • Outside linebacker Jonah Elliss was downgraded to out and tight end Nate Adkins was ruled out, trimming depth at other positions for the primetime matchup.
