Denver Broncos Week 6 Inactives: Greg Dulcich out again plus a shakeup at safety image

The Denver Broncos will go into a game without a healthy Greg Dulcich for the second week in a row. The Broncos made Dulcich inactive again, a troubling sign for the tight end's future. Lucas Krull will be active and get those snaps instead. 

Looking at the inactive list, there are really no surprises ahead of this key divisional game. 

 

Zach Wilson and Kris Abrams-Draine have been inactive for every game this season. Undrafted rookie running back Blake Watson is back on the list as the Broncos will get Audric Estime back in the lineup. 

Alex Palczewski is nursing an ankle injury but was able to avoid injured reserve, unlike starting center Luke Wattenberg. Alex Forsyth will get the start at center and Matt Peart will be inserted into the starting lineup in place of Palczewski, who replaced Mike McGlinchey. 

The Broncos will do something different at safety on Sunday. JL Skinner and Keidron Smith were both made inactive meaning Devon Key and Tanner McAlister, who was just called up from the practice squad, will be the backup safeties to Brandon Jones and P.J. Locke. 

For the Los Angeles Chargers, despite several injury concerns entering this game, the only major name on their inactive list is that of Joey Bosa. It will be interesting to see if left tackle Rashawn Slater starts the game.
