The Denver Broncos have ruled out starting cornerbacks Patrick Surtain with an ankle injury and Riley Moss with a ribs injury, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Sunday. The report did not specify a return timetable for either player.
Moss has started the season as a productive piece of Denver’s secondary. The cornerback has 14 total tackles, including nine solo stops, one interception and five passes defended through three games in 2026–27.
The Broncos are 2-1, but their defense ranks 26th in EPA among 32 teams. Their offense ranks 23rd, leaving Denver without both of the starting cornerbacks identified by Schefter.
