Denver Broncos cornerback Damarri Mathis suffered an ankle injury early in Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.
Mathis was carted off the field and underwent X-rays, which came back negative. There’s still more testing to be done, but that’s a positive early sign.
“The images were real positive, so I don’t think it’s anything significant,” coach Sean Payton said when asked about Mathis on Sunday night. “That’s good news.”
Elsewhere on the injury front, Denver pass rusher Durell Nchami suffered a hamstring injury and wide receiver Phillip Dorsett injured his leg. Dorsett later returned to the game. There’s been no word yet on Nchami’s status.
When the Broncos set a 53-man roster on Tuesday, they are allowed to place two players on injured reserve with a designation to return. If Mathis is placed on IR with such a designation, he would be eligible to return after four weeks. That’s a moot point, of course, if it’s not a serious injury.
