Elway Is Questionable With Shoulder Problem
A bony abnormality in John Elway’s throwing shoulder makes him questionable for today’s game against the New England Patriots, the Denver Broncos said Saturday.
The quarterback said earlier this week that a sore shoulder made him pessimistic about starting. On Saturday, his status was downgraded from probable to questionable, and the decision on whether he will play will be made by noon today, Bronco spokesman Barry Hawkins said.
The shoulder irritation proved to be an abnormality that Elway has apparently had since birth and was confirmed by tests Friday, Hawkins said.
Backup Gary Kubiak and third-stringer Shawn Moore are both on the roster.
