Um, so what's the, what's the vibe, what's the word around Broncos headquarters?

They, they're more confident in Bo than, inside the building than they are outside, that's for sure.

Um, you know, he, he is, uh, not quite in tune for whatever reason.

Uh, it looks to me like it might be a mental thing.

He's...

First of all, the speculation about whether his ankle is hurting, that's, that's just not true.

He, he is, he's fine physically.

Right.

And what about Moss' injury? Is it just ribs?

Bradley Moss, not as bad.

They were checking out...

They said ribs, but they were checking out his abdomen.

I think he had something close to a sports hernia his rookie year here, so you hope it's not anything like that.

But they came away pretty pleased with the exams yesterday that they're not quite as bad as they thought.

All right, Klis, give us a timetable for when these guys come back.

All I can say right now is they're not on the IR, which if it was real serious, they would put them on IR, and that would be an automatic four-week, and they'd start looking to bring guys in.

What can you tell us? What are the updates? What's the timetable to return for, in order, Patrick Surtain, Pat Bryant, Riley Moss?

All I can tell you is, uh, with the ankle injuries to, uh, Surtain and Bryant, uh, [clears throat] it wasn't quite as bad.

All, after all the exams yesterday, not quite as bad as it appeared as they were leaving the field.

[coughs] You know, Surtain, uh, limped off with help, and, uh, Bryant with the cart ride.

They're not gonna be season ending.

Um, they're, they're gonna be, you know, down a bit, you know, but I, uh, from what I hear is the timetable's to be determined.

Uh, not as bad.

Mike, uh, how about Jonathan Cooper? What's the latest on him? Anything there? I mean, I thought it was gonna be a four-week deal when he went on the commissioner's exempt list, and now we're four weeks in, but I haven't heard, we haven't heard anything about Jonathan Cooper.
