ACL injury takes down another athlete. This time, it’s a wide receiver for the Denver Broncos. Seasoned NFL reporter Jeff Legwold has more on the story in ESPN.com: Denver Broncos wide receiver Jordan Norwood, who was making a significant push to make the roster as a sixth wide receiver, suffered a knee injury in Wednesday’s practice and will miss the remainder of the season. Norwood was injured in a red zone drill when he battled Houston Texans cornerback Brandon Harris for the ball in the back left corner of the end zone. The two players jumped for the pass and Norwood landed somewhat awkwardly. Norwood is one of several players on the Broncos’ roster who suffered sports injuries this season. Some have been sidelined by similar ACL injuries, leg fractures, or strained quadriceps. Others damaged their ankles, calves, knees, or hamstrings. These temporary or permanent losses may not cripple the team’s chances of reaching the Super Bowl once again.
