Shelby Harris Jersey , Colo. (AP) — Left guard Max Garcia showed up at the Denver Broncos‘ headquarters Friday with a sore left knee, something that initially seemed like a minor annoyance for a team preparing for two big offensive line changes already.With right guard Connor McGovern preparing for his first NFL start at center and Elijah Wilkinson set to make his first pro start at right guard, Garcia went for an MRI.The result was devastating: a torn anterior cruciate ligament.Garcia is the third starting offensive lineman the Broncos have lost this season, joining guard Ronald Leary (Achilles) and center Matt Paradis, who had surgery on his broken right leg earlier this week.“It’s been a tough year for us O-linemen,” left tackle Garett Bolles said. “It’s a shame to see three guys that are really close to me go down, but at the same time I know that we have guys behind them that have stepped up to the plate and are going to smack a home run.”Garcia’s injury further staggered a team that’s trying to salvage a season featuring four one-score losses, including to the league’s two 9-1 teams the Rams and Chiefs, by a combined seven points.“It was really weird Peyton Manning Jersey , I watched (Thursday’s) practice from the last play back to the first play and he didn’t miss a down,” coach Vance Joseph said. “So, the play he was injured on, I saw it, it was kind of a slip. It was no big deal. He finished up practice.”Joseph said Billy Turner, who started four games at right tackle when Jared Veldheer was out with a knee injury, will start at left guard Sunday when the Broncos (3-6) visit the Los Angeles Chargers (7-2).This will mark the Broncos’ sixth different lineup on the O-line this season, but Joseph said it won’t affect the game plan.“I thought leaving camp that we had the best line that we’ve had around here in a while as far as depth and as far as guys who can play” multiple positions, Joseph said. “It happens. It’s football. We’ve got Billy Turner playing the left guard with Eli playing the right guard along with Mac playing the center Drew Lock Denver Broncos Jersey , so I’m comfortable. Let’s go play.”He said recently signed seven-year veteran center Gino Gradkowski will be active Sunday along with rookie swing guard Sam Jones.“Ain’t too many guys left ,” he said.Through every combination the Broncos have run the ball with success as rookies Phillip Lindsay and Royce Freeman have rushed for 900 yards and seven touchdowns with veteran Devontae Booker adding 144 yards, a touchdown and a team-high 5.8-yard average.What they’ve had trouble doing is protecting quarterback Case Keenum, who has 11 touchdowns and 11 turnovers and has been sacked two dozen times.Still, offensive coordinator Billy Musgrave has been reluctant to reduce his use of three-receiver sets that put more pressure on the thinning O-line.The turnstile hasn’t helped Bolles, a 2017 first-rounder, refine his raw game after playing just one season of major college football.“It’s been hard having different lineups. I’ve had five different lineups, so it’s been frustrating,” Bolles said. “But it doesn’t matter who’s next to me Drew Lock Denver Broncos Jersey , they’re going to make me better, I’m going to make them better and you’ve just got to roll with the punches and work out the kinks.” The Denver Broncos will open 2.5-point underdogs to the Oakland Raiders in Week 1 on Monday Night Football."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections Broncos NewsBroncos 2019 Draft ClassBroncos PodcastsBroncos 2019 ScheduleKey Offseason DatesCommunity RulesFull ArchiveBroncos StoriesScheduleRosterStatsOdds Shop About Masthead Community Guidelines StubHub ✕Denver Broncos NewsDenver Broncos ScheduleBroncos open 2.5-point underdogs to Raiders in Week 1New,33commentsThe Denver Broncos will open 2.5-point underdogs to the Oakland Raiders in Week 1 on Monday Night Football. Broncos open 2.5-point underdogs to Raiders in Week 1Kirby Lee-USA TODAY SportsThe Denver Broncos will open up their 2019 season on the road against the Oakland Raiders on Monday Night Football as 2.5-point underdogs according to Westgate SuperBook. Below is the full list of odds for Week 1 of the regular season.Given the road team tends to get a three-point spotter, it would seem that oddmakers are giving the Broncos a slight edge over their AFC West rival. The Broncos full 2019 schedule has been released and this will be the first time in a while they have opened on the road to start the season. They will need to pile up the wins early, however, as they have a five game stretch late in the season of early east coast games. Historically, the Broncos have struggled in those types of early games. Four out of five games from Weeks 11 to 15 are going to be a brutal test for the Broncos. The more wins they get early the better.
