ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Tight end Nate Adkins returned to practice Thursday as the Broncos took the field ahead of Week 5.

Adkins (concussion) was listed as a nonparticipant on the Broncos' estimated Wednesday practice report before being limited on Thursday.

Guard Quinn Meinerz (illness) was added to the report on Thursday and did not practice.

Outside linebacker Jonah Elliss (ribs) and wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (hip/ankle) remained limited participants for the second consecutive day.

Outside linebacker Nik Bonitto (wrist) and inside linebacker Alex Singleton (thumb), meanwhile, remained full participants.

Denver will announce its game statuses on Friday ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles.
