The Denver Broncos have placed rookie running back Audric Estime on injured reserve due to an ankle injury. According to reports, Estime is expected to miss at least four games, indicating that the injury may not be long-term. This development could impact the Broncos' backfield strategy in the coming weeks.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix had a challenging debut against the Seattle Seahawks, throwing two interceptions and completing 26 of 42 passes for 138 yards in a 26-20 loss. Coach Sean Payton acknowledged that Nix did not receive adequate support from his teammates or coaches, particularly highlighting the struggles of the run game and dropped passes. Despite the difficulties, Nix showed resilience, leading the team to a late touchdown and demonstrating poise throughout the game.
