While the severity of the injury still isn’t known, it didn’t look good. The offensive lineman didn’t go into the Broncos training facility. Instead, he was headed for a different location.
The cart took Quinn Bailey to the ambulance that is here standing by.

Bailey isn’t a starter. He’s listed as the second-string right tackle on the Broncos depth chart, backing up Mike McGlinchey. But he’s an important part of the team’s rotation in the trenches.
A season ago, Bailey appeared in all 17 games for Denver. He’s a utility player, one who can play multiple positions along the offensive line.
It’s a big loss for the Broncos, as their first significant injury of the season seems to have occurred. Stay tuned to Denver Sports 104.3 The Fan for the latest information.
(Update 2:03 p.m.) –
Unfortunately, Bailey fractured his ankle and is almost certainly done for the year.
Sean Payton said Quinn Bailey suffered fractured ankle. “That was apparent”
He will have surgery. “It was difficult for those guys to see.” #9sports— MikeKlis9NEWS (@mikeklis9news) July 31, 2024
