Phillip Lindsay Misses Practice Wednesday
4 years agoDenver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay (toes) missed practice on Wednesday after he jammed some toes in the Week 8 win over the division-rival Chargers, according to a source. However, there is optimism that he will be ready to go for the Week 9 matchup with the Falcons on Sunday. Lindsay continues to share backfield work with Melvin Gordon, but he has been the better running back each of the last two weeks. The 26-year-old rushed the ball six times for 83 yards and a touchdown last Sunday and is averaging a healthy 6.4 yards per carry in his four games this year. Lindsay was sidelined several weeks with a turf-toe injury earlier this season, so this injury is something to watch, but he'll be a high-end RB3/flex against Atlanta if he's active.
