Denver Broncos offensive lineman Garett Bolles left Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks in the second half with an ankle injury and he was replaced at left tackle by Matt Peart.
After the game, Broncos coach Sean Payton downplayed the injury.
“Yeah, I think he’s going to be fine,” Payton said. “He had an MRI. I think the evaluation was fine. I think he’s got a bruise.”
That’s certainly good news for Denver’s offense because Bolles is the team’s best tackle. We should know more about Bolles’ status after Wednesday’s injury report is released.
Bolles became the sixth offensive tackle in franchise history to reach 100 career starts on Sunday, joining Ken Lanier (165), Matt Lepsis (133), Dave Studdard (124), Claudie Minor (123) and Mike Current (107).
Now in his seventh season, Bolles (32) is entering the final year of his contract with a $15.75 million salary. If the Broncos do not give him an extension, Bolles will become a free agent next spring.
