ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Broncos linebacker Dre Greenlaw appears poised to return to game action.
Greenlaw (hamstring) improved to a full participant in Thursday's practice after being limited the previous two days, and he was not assigned a game status for Saturday's matchup with the Buffalo Bills. The absence of a game status indicates Greenlaw will be available to play.
The veteran linebacker last played in Week 16, and he has appeared in eight games for the Broncos this season. Greenlaw has recorded 43 tackles, two tackles for loss, two quarterback hits, one sack, a forced fumble, two passes defensed and an interception.
Defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers (hip) was a full participant for the third consecutive day and was also not assigned a game status.
Linebacker Drew Sanders (ankle) and tight end Lucas Krull (foot) — who returned to the practice this week — were ruled out for the Divisional Round game. Sanders improved to a full participant on Thursday, while Krull was limited for a third consecutive day.
The Broncos will host the Bills in the Divisional Round on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. MT on CBS.
