Denver Broncos tight end Jake Butt tore his left ACL during a walkthrough practice Thursday and is headed for injured reserve for the second straight season.Butt spent his rookie season last year on IR while recovering from the same injury to his other knee.“Jake has worked his tail off to recover from his previous injuries Womens Courtland Sutton Jersey , and we feel terrible for him,” coach Vance Joseph said in a statement after an MRI confirmed the team’s fears .“He’s a great kid who’s developed into a very good football player. We have no doubt Jake will come back stronger than ever,” Joseph added.So, the Broncos (2-1), who host Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs (3-0) Monday night, find themselves waiting for Butt to get healthy once again.Butt had eight catches for 85 yards this season in his comeback from his last knee injury. He also tore his right ACL in spring drills as a sophomore at Michigan.That medical history helped drive his draft stock down last year, making him the forgotten member of 2017’s deep tight end class even though he won the John Mackey Award as the nation’s top tight end his senior season.Many teams considered Butt as talented as first-round selections O.J. Howard, Evan Engram and David Njoku, but he slipped to the fifth round after tearing his right ACL in Michigan’s 33-32 loss to Florida State in the 2017 Orange Bowl. He was the eighth tight end drafted last year.Butt had a solid offseason and took most of the first-team snaps while Jeff Heuerman missed two weeks of training camp with a sore knee.Butt’s injury leaves the Broncos with two fourth-year tight ends in Heuerman and Matt LaCosse, plus Brian Parker on their practice squad.

Report: Broncos to have a pre-draft visit with Houston cornerback, Isaiah JohnsonJames Guillory-USA TODAY SportsAccording to the Houston Chronicle’s Aaron WIlson, the Denver Broncos attended Houston’s Pro Day on Thursday and showed interest in cornerback, Isaiah Johnson. They also have scheduled a pre-draft visit/workout with the former Houston cornerback. Johnson is a 6’2”, 208lb cornerback who ran a 4.4 40-time at the NFL Scouting Combine. He has 33” arms and jumped a 36.5 inch vertical at the Combine as well. He played a total of four seasons at Houston and started the past two seasons at cornerback for them. During Johnson’s four-year career at Houston, he has totaled 115 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss, 4 interceptions, and 12 pass deflections. This past season, Johnson totaled 66 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss https://www.broncoslockerroom.com/authentic-von-miller-jersey , 2 interceptions, and 5 pass deflections. Here is what The Draft Network’s Kyle Crabbs had to say about Isaiah Johnson in his scouting report.Johnson figures to be in that late day two to early day three range. He has tons of upside, good tools, the size and length you look for, but needs development. type of prospects tend to go and so I expect Johnson to go in that range as well. The Broncos addressed their secondary needs during free agency by signing cornerback/safety Kareem Jackson and slot cornerback Bryce Callahan. Those two will join Pro Bowler Chris Harris Jr. and 2018 rookie Isaac Yiadom in the Broncos secondary. This doesn’t leave a ton of room for another corner, but a player like Johnson has potential and could push Yiadom for some outside corner duties if Jackson tends to play more safety. The Broncos attended his Pro Day, worked with him a bit on the side, and now have a visit/workout scheduled with him, so there appears to be some legitimate interest there. This new Broncos coaching staff has a history of developing cornerbacks in their recent stops, so I am intrigued with what they could do with someone like Johnson.
