According to reports, Coleman is dealing with a high ankle sprain. While the injury will keep him out of Sunday night’s matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, there is optimism regarding his recovery timeline. Sources indicate that the team expects the fourth-round pick to be available for selection when he is first eligible to return, which would be the October 25 game against the Arizona Cardinals.
Backfield Adjustments and Roster Moves
Coleman’s absence creates a void in the Broncos' backfield, particularly given his role in the team's recent success. During the win against Jacksonville, the rookie proved instrumental in the game-clinching drive, recording 33 of his 39 total rushing yards during the final 4 minutes and 41 seconds of play. That performance also included the first touchdown of his professional career, a 3-yard scoring run.
Head coach
In conjunction with the move to place Coleman on injured reserve, the Broncos made several adjustments to their active roster on Saturday. The team signed long snapper Mitchell Fraboni from the practice squad. Additionally, fullback Adam Prentice and wide receiver Kolbe Katsis were elevated from the practice squad for the upcoming game against the Rams. The inclusion of Katsis provides depth in the return game, as All-Pro returner Marvin Mims Jr. is currently listed as questionable for Sunday due to a foot injury.
