Montee Ball To Miss Several Weeks
Montee Ball to have MRI Monday; may miss time with groin injury. |
According to Denver Post, the Broncos believe that Ball will be out "for a while" and they do not know for sure until an MRI is done today.
The injury occurred while Ball was blocking and limited him to just six carries for seven yards on Sunday. Ball has disappointed as the Broncos running back this year, averaging just 3.1 yards per carry after four games.
The good news is that his alternate played well after Ball had to leave. Ronnie Hillman had 15 carries for 64 yards, and Juwan Thompson had three carries for 15 yards and a touchdown. The Broncos offense should be in good hands, despite the absence of Ball.
