By ARNIE STAPLETON - AP Pro Football Writer

The Broncos are expecting Pro Bowl linebacker Bradley Chubb back in six to eight weeks following surgery on his left ankle on Wednesday.

Malik Reed will start for Chubb on Sunday when the unbeaten Broncos host the winless New York Jets in their home opener.
