Broncos OT Quinn Bailey fractures ankle at practice
Denver Broncos offensive tackle Quinn Bailey, a player coach Sean Payton called "easily [the team's] Lineman 6" because of his versatility and importance on the depth chart, left Wednesday's practice in an ambulance after he suffered a fractured right ankle.
Bailey, who was likely the Broncos' top reserve at tackle, suffered the injury in team drills when another player rolled up on his leg. As he was treated by the team's medical staff, most of his teammates took a knee.
An air cast was placed on Bailey's right leg, and he was taken off the field on a cart to a waiting ambulance. Broncos coach Sean Payton confirmed the ankle fracture after practice and said Bailey is expected to have surgery in the days ahead.

Reports are saying once Sean saw the guy on the ground writhing in pain he told him to make sure he "remembers Papa when he gets that percocet RX" [Reply]

I didn't. I was with you on enjoying his absence. But now that he's back, he needs to be set straight. Denver will win no more than 6 games, finish last in the division in route to its 8th losing season in a row. [Reply]
