Justin Simmons Questionable, Josey Jewell Ruled Out

one year ago

The Denver Broncos defense could be short-handed in Week 4 on the road in Chicago against the Bears as they look to put the bad taste of giving up 70 points to the Miami Dolphins in Week 3 behind them. Safety Justin Simmons (hip) is listed as questionable to play on Sunday, while linebackers Josey Jewell (hip) and Frank Clark (hip) and defensive tackle Mike Purcell (ribs) have been ruled out. Head coach Sean Payton suggested inside linebacker Drew Sanders would play alongside Alex Singleton in Jewell's absence. Denver's D has been awful the last two weeks for fantasy managers, but they will be taking on a Bears offense that has been just as atrocious on the other side of the ball. Despite the good matchup, it's hard to recommend the Broncos defense/special teams after they allowed 70 points a week ago.
