ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Denver Broncos will be without two of their key free agent additions when they face the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Inside linebacker Dre Greenlaw will miss his third game with a thigh injury and tight end Evan Engram will also sit this one out after injuring his back in the Broncos' 29-28 loss at Indianapolis in Week 2.

The Broncos identified Engram and Greenlaw as contributors who could push them closer toward their goals, which include contending for AFC supremacy. Therefore, it is hard to overstate their absences. The Chargers are more shorthanded, though, following the news that future Hall of Famer Khalil Mack is going on the injured reserve.

The Denver Broncos will be at a loss when they take on the Los Angeles Chargers, as the team has ruled out two starters ahead of the showdown.

There was no miraculous recovery on the side field in Dove Valley on Friday afternoon.

You might want to bench Chargers RB Omarion Hampton, a first-round pick in this year's draft. He played nearly 81% of the snaps in Week 1 and scored seven points, but Hampton fell off in Week 2 and Najee Harris saw increased action.

The Los Angeles Chargers didn’t appear to have a bad split with running back J.K. Dobbins this offseason. Granted, the Chargers applied a really rare tag to Dobbins ahead of free agency, then signed Najee Harris and drafted Omarion Hampton in the first round, while he went and signed with the Denver Broncos.

Is Week 3 at L.A. an early inflection point for Sean Payton’s team? Is it that big of a deal if Denver drops to 1-2? And what must the the Broncos do in order to pull the upset and tie the

That situation understandably left Dobbins with a chip on his shoulder, and he ended up signing with the division rival Denver Broncos on a one-year deal. The Broncos are set to face the Chargers on Sunday, and Dobbins can give intel to his new teammates about his old club.
