Broncos tight end Noah Fant suffered a foot injury during the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game against the Texans. After initially being able to limp off the field, the rookie was carted back to the locker room for more evaluation.
Denver announced that Fant is questionable to return to the game.
Before leaving the contest, Fant caught four passes for 113 yards and a touchdown. With Fant currently on the sideline, the Broncos’ only remaining tight ends are Jeff Heuerman and Troy Fumagalli. Fullback Andrew Beck can also play tight end if needed.
Midway through the fourth, Denver leads Houston 38-17.
