OAKLAND — The Broncos suffered yet another blow to their defense Sunday night when defensive end Derek Wolfe left the game with an elbow injury. He walked off the field under his own power, but Wolfe was taken into the locker room and eventually ruled out for the remainer of the game.

Head Coach Gary Kubiak had no update after the game but said that Wolfe would be evaluated Monday when the team returns to UCHealth Training Center.

Even without Wolfe, the Broncos defense knows it must step up as a unit to stop the run.

"Wolfe is a big loss especially on the defensive line," outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware said. "He's been a strong side guy that's stopping the run. We've got to replace him. That's what team is about. Everybody's got to pick up the pieces. It's not just one guy out there playing. It's 11. All 11 guys have to pick up where he's missing."
