The Denver Broncos got a big 44-24 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, but the victory came at a cost.
Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims entered the NFL’s concussion protocol, tight end/fullback Nate Adkins suffered a knee injury and star cornerback Pat Surtain was ruled out in the third quarter with a shoulder injury.
Denver defensive lineman D.J. Jones was also evaluated for a possible concussion during the game, and fellow defensive lineman Zach Allen received treatment from trainers, but both players later returned to action.
“[I’m] not going to discuss any of the players that were injured — at all,” coach Sean Payton said after the game.
Elsewhere on the injury front, tight end Lucas Krull — who is currently on injured reserve with a foot injury — will undergo surgery early this week. It’s to-be-determined if it will be a season-ending surgery for Krull.
