Zach Bye and Dr. Joseph Ramos examine the four most likely possibilities: a rib contusion, intercostal muscle strain, rib fracture, or costochondral separation.

Dr. Ramos explains what each injury could mean for Moss and the Broncos, including the potential recovery timelines:

• Rib contusion: approximately 1–2 weeks

• Intercostal muscle strain: approximately 3–4 weeks

• Rib fracture: approximately 3–4 weeks

• Costochondral separation: potentially 4–8 weeks

The biggest question is whether Moss suffered a simple bruise or something more serious involving the rib, muscle, or cartilage. Until the Broncos provide an official diagnosis, there is still a wide range of possibilities.

Could this be a major setback for Riley Moss and the Broncos’ secondary? Watch the full breakdown with Dr. Ramos for the details.
