The Broncos activated Sanders (Achilles) from the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sanders was designated to return from the PUP list Nov. 6, and he has been a full practice participant over the past two weeks. His activation Tuesday indicates that the second-year linebacker has fully recovered from his Achilles surgery that he underwent in May. Sanders is on track to make his 2024 regular-season debut in Week 13 against the Browns on Monday, Dec. 2.

Sanders (Achilles) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 12 matchup against Las Vegas.

EDGE Analysis

Sanders underwent Achilles surgery in May and has been on the PUP list all season. He was designated to return Nov. 6 and and was a full participant in every practice this week, but Denver isn't ready to send him into game action. Sanders will need to activated on or before Nov. 27 in order to be able to play this season.

Sanders (Achilles) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Despite being a full practice participant all week, Sanders will remain on the reserve/PUP list. Given his progress, Sanders could very well make his 2024 regular-season debut in Week 12 against the Raiders on Sunday, Nov. 24.

Sanders (Achilles) was limited in practice Friday, but he has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Kansas City.

EDGE Analysis

Sanders opened the regular season on the Broncos' reserve/PUP list while working his way back from an Achilles procedure in May, but he has been designated to return from IR after his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday, per Aric DiLalla of the team's official site. Sanders was able to practice in a limited capacity all week, and while he won't play Sunday, he appears to be close to making his 2024 regular-season debut. Sanders played in all 17 regular-season games during his rookie campaign in 2023 and finished with 24 tackles (13 solo) and one fumble recovery.

Sanders (Achilles) was placed on the reserve/PUP list by the Broncos on Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sanders has been working his way back from Achilles surgery that he underwent in May and he's not likely to play until late November at earliest. The linebacker could very well sit out the entire year, but the team's decision to avoid placing him on injured reserve suggests there's still hope for Sanders in 2024.

Sanders (Achilles) was placed on the active/PUP list Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sanders is still recovering from the Achilles surgery he underwent in late May, so the injury designation comes as no surprise. The linebacker faces an uphill battle to be available to play at all in 2024, though head coach Sean Payton has expressed his optimism in the past.

Sanders (Achilles) underwent surgery and head coach Sean Payton expects him back in 2024, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sanders suffered a torn Achilles at Monday's OTA session with the Broncos, but Payton said Thursday that the linebacker sustained the injury on "an early enough timeline that we'll bring him back," according to Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. Sanders will likely need approximately six months, if not longer, to recover, putting his status for the 2024 campaign up in the air. Though his head coach's words do instill some confidence that he'll make it back for a portion of his sophomore campaign in the NFL.

Sanders suffered a torn Achilles on Monday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The second-year linebacker played in all 17 games as a rookie but started only four, making 24 tackles. Sanders was likely to play a role in Denver's inside linebacker rotation with projected starters Alex Singleton and Cody Barton. Now, the 2023 third-round pick will miss most or all of the 2024 campaign.

Sanders is expected to start at inside linebacker Sunday alongside Alex Singleton, Troy Renck of Denver7.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Josey Jewell (groin) sidelined, Sanders is the next-man-up for Denver. The rookie played only three defensive snaps in the Broncos' first two games before logging 44 (62 percent) in last week's 70-20 loss in Miami.
