Third day in a row a Broncos starter left practice early

Something is going on in Denver's practice bubble right now, and it is not good.

Jaylen Waddle, who plays wide receiver for the Denver Broncos, walked off the field early Wednesday with muscle tightness. It was a padded practice — the kind that matters — and Waddle did not finish it.

That detail would be easy to file away on its own. But this was the third straight day a Broncos starter left practice early with an injury. Three days, three different players, three early exits. Whatever is happening, it has become a pattern.

For a team trying to build something real, a week that keeps losing starters before it is even over is the kind of thing that quietly resets expectations. The question is whether Wednesday was the last of it, or just the latest.
