Report: Broncos' Bolles avoids major injury, will miss a couple weeks
Ron Chenoy / USA TODAY Sports
Denver Broncos rookie left tackle Garett Bolles has avoided a major injury and is expected to miss a couple of weeks with a high ankle sprain and a deep bone bruise, a source told 9News' Mike Klis.
The Broncos reportedly feared their first-round pick suffered a torn Achilles after he was carted off in tears from Sunday's win over the Dallas Cowboys.
Bolles was taken with the 20th overall pick in this year's draft, and his solid play to start his career has helped revitalize Denver's previously weak offensive line.
Allen Barbre should man Trevor Siemian's blind side until Bolles returns.
