Broncos lose linebacker Josey Jewell to torn chest muscle

By ARNIE STAPLETON - AP Pro Football Writer

The Denver Broncos are one of two AFC teams who are 2-0 but they’ve lost five starters to injuries. The most seriously hurt appears to be inside linebacker Josey Jewell, who tore a chest muscle on a special teams play in Denver’s win at Jacksonville on Sunday. Pro Bowl pass rusher Bradley Chubb also left the game. He aggravated a sprained right ankle that’s bothered him for almost a month. The Broncos lost receiver Jerry Jeudy to a sprained ankle, cornerback Ronald Darby to a pulled hamstring and right guard Graham Glasgow to an irregular heartbeat in Week 1.  

Chiefs defense exposed by Jackson, Ravens in 36-35 defeat

They couldn’t generate any pass rush all game, and their only sack came on a safety blitz by Daniel Sorensen. They also couldn’t stop the Ravens run game, even when they knew it was coming. That was the case when Lamar Jackson took a keep for a clinching first down with about a minute left that prevented Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City offense from getting one last chance.
