Wolfe (hip) was again limited at Tuesday's practice, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wolfe popped up on Monday's injury report after playing 46 of a 70 defensive snaps in Sunday's victory over the Titans. The Broncos could just be exercising caution due to the short week, but his status will have to be monitored as the week progresses. Dre'Mont Jones would be in line for a bigger role should he ultimately be unable to go.

Wolfe (hip) is listed as a limited participant in Monday's practice estimate, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is a new injury, but Wolfe's status for Thursday's game against the Chiefs doesn't appear to be in jeopardy at this time. He managed to play 46 of 70 possible defensive snaps (66 percent) and record two sacks in this past Sunday's win over the Titans. Still, he'll need to get on the field when the Broncos host an actual practice this week.

Wolfe (ankle) is active for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Wolfe was considered questionable for this contest after injuring his ankle in Week 3's game versus the Packers, but he has shaken off the issue. He'll be an important run-stopper in this contest against Leonard Fournette.

Wole (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wolfe practiced in limited fashion throughout the week, and figures to be more on the probable side of his questionable designation. Still, confirmation on his status will not come until closer to game time. Dre'Mont Jones and DeMarcus Walker would be in line for bigger workloads should he ultimately sit out.

Wolfe (ankle) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wolfe had an MRI earlier in the week, and the results were better than the Broncos anticipated. Still, he's a DNP for the first practice of the week and is swimming against the current for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.

Wolfe (ankle) will have an MRI on Monday, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wolfe was spotted in a walking boot after getting carted off the field during Sunday's loss to the Packers. The initial tests revealed no broken bones in his right ankle, but it sounds like Wolfe expects to miss at least one game. The MRI should reveal a more specific timeline.

Wolfe was seen in a boot on his right foot following Sunday's game against Green Bay, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wolfe suffered the game in the second quarter, and was subsequently carted off the field due to the injury. X-rays on his injured ankle didn't show a break, and Wolfe hopes to only miss one game, per Troy Renck of Denver 7 News. An MRI could be coming on the injured ankle to specify the injury, but it's not clear. If Wolfe is forced to miss time, DeMarcus Walker and Dre'Mont Jones are the leading candidates to see an increase in snaps.

Wolfe left and won't return to Sunday's contest against the Packers due to an ankle injury, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wolfe was carted off the field in the second quarter, which suggests he's dealing with serious injury. With the veteran sidelined, DeMarcus Walker and Dre'Mont Jones would be in line for an increase in reps. Expect the team to have an update on Wolfe's status following Sunday's game.

The Broncos have officially exercised the 2019 option on Wolfe's contract, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
EDGE Analysis
Denver could have saved over $8 million in space by letting him walk, but the Broncos will instead keep Wolfe around as the 29-year-old enters the last year of his contract. He's more valuable in real life than fantasy, though, considering Wolfe has accrued just 74 tackles and 3.5 sacks on 1,169 defensive snaps over the past two seasons.
