He came back out onto the field in uniform after the injury, and I think he even went back into the game shortly before coming back out.

I thought we did well against the run without him. There literally didn't seem to be a decline in play on the defensive line whatsoever.

I saw Bailey more than a few times.

I wonder if Denver will get fined for putting Welker back into the game with a concussion. They're claiming that he took a second hit later after the hit where he fumbled, but that's a lie. It was clearly the fumble hit, and they put him back in the game. I guess they value a win more than the health of their players.

Broncos' receiver Welker status uncertain after concussion

39 minutes ago

(Reuters) - The Denver Broncos met the challenge with Sunday's victory over the previously unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs, but may be without sure-handed receiver Wes Welker for their next big test against the New England Patriots.

Welker's status for a return Sunday night against the AFC East-leading Patriots (7-2), his former team, was in doubt after suffering a concussion in the 27-17 win over Kansas City, the Broncos announced after the game.

The Broncos jumped into a tie for the AFC West lead with Kansas City at 9-1 as Welker had eight catches for 74 yards.

Welker, who has scored nine touchdowns this season, took a big hit in the second half, left the field briefly, and later absorbed another hit that ended the game for him.

Under National Football League rules, Welker will not be able to participate fully in practice until Friday at the earliest even if he passes a baseline test on Monday.

Following their away clash against the Patriots, Denver will travel to Kansas City for another showdown with the Chiefs in a tough stretch of games for the Broncos.
