The Denver Broncos had no change on the injury front during Thursday's practice. Champ Bailey, Elvis Dumervil and Marcus Thomas were all at practice again, but they were limited participants again. While their status for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers is still undetermined, Knowshon Moreno and D.J. Williams had a full practice for the second straight day. Both were available against the Titans in an emergency situation and did not receive any playing time.
The Broncos need all three defensive starters back. Bailey's absence has led to large gains by the opposition, and Dumervil has had little time to work with Von Miller on the gridiron. Thomas' return would help shore up a run defense that has done quite well so far this season.
For the Packers, running back Ryan Grant leads a list of four players who did not practice on Thursday. Grant suffered a kidney injury last week.
