Broncos inactives: 6 players won’t play on ‘Sunday Night Football’

The Denver Broncos have announced their list of six inactive players for a Sunday Night Football showdown with the Minnesota Vikings.

Broncos safety P.J. Locke (ankle), defensive lineman Elijah Garcia, inside linebacker Ben Niemann, outside linebacker Thomas Incoom, edge defender Ronnie Perkins and center Alex Forsyth won’t suit up tonight.

These six inactive players are members of the 53-man roster who are not eligible to play against the Vikings in Week 11. Meanwhile, wide receiver Justin Jefferson (hamstring) remains out for Minnesota.

Denver safety Kareem Jackson has returned after serving a two-game suspension and he is expected to start across from Justin Simmons with Locke sidelined.

Elsewhere on the roster front, the Broncos elevated wide receiver David Sills from the practice squad to the game-day roster on Saturday night.

Sunday’s game will be nationally televised on NBC with kickoff set for 6:20 p.m. MT. Fans can stream the Sunday Night Football showdown on fuboTV (try it free).
