On Sunday, the Broncos will host the defending Super Bowl champions. The showdown with the Chiefs will provide a litmus test for Denver, as they try to prove that they’re ready to compete with Kansas City in the AFC West.

Thus, having all hands on deck will be important. The Broncos need everyone available in order to battle the Chiefs, as it’s a tall order.

On that front, the Broncos put out good news and bad news on Thursday’s injury report. On the positive side of things, Denver’s list of injured players is as short as it’s been in weeks. On the negative front, however, there are some key players who may not be ready to go on Sunday.

Here’s the latest injury report:
