Denver traded Browning to Arizona on Monday in exchange for a sixth-round draft pick, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports. Browning's fourth season as a pro has been plagued by injuries thus far - he's missed four of the Broncos' nine games - but now he'll get a clean slate with the Cardinals. With rookie first-rounder Darius Robinson still dealing with a calf injury, Browning could earn a meaningful share of playing time on the edge relatively quickly.

Denver traded Browning to Arizona on Monday in exchange for a sixth-round draft pick, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports. Browning's fourth season as a pro has been plagued by injuries thus far - he's missed four of the Broncos' nine games - but now he'll get a clean slate with the Cardinals. With rookie first-rounder Darius Robinson still dealing with a calf injury, Browning could earn a meaningful share of playing time on the edge relatively quickly.
The Broncos activated Browning (foot) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game against the Saints, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports. Browning missed the Broncos' last four games due to a foot injury he sustained in Week 2 against the Steelers. His practice window to return from IR opened up Tuesday, and he was able to practice as a full participant in Wednesday's session. Given his activation off IR, Browning is in line to return for Thursday night's game, though he could operate on a snap count.
The Broncos designated Browning (foot) to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Susanna Weir of the team's official site reports. Browning returned to on-field action for the first time since injuring his foot in Week 2 against the Steelers, and he was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's injury report. His practice participation Wednesday will provide a clearer picture on whether he'll be activated off the Broncos' IR ahead of Thursday's game against the Saints.
The Broncos placed Browning on injured reserve Saturday due to a foot injury, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Browning injured his foot during the Broncos' Week 2 loss against the Steelers. He was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucs after being unable to practice all week, and the 2021 third-round pick will now have to miss at least the next four games after being placed on Denver's injured reserve. The severity of his foot injury isn't clear, but the earliest Browning can return is Week 7 against the Saints on Oct. 17. Nik Bonitto will move into a starting role at linebacker alongside Alex Singleton, Cody Barton and Jonathon Cooper while Browning is sidelined.
Browning (foot) is listed as out for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. Browning will have to sit out at least one full game as he recovers from the foot injury he sustained in Week 2 versus the Steelers. In his absence, Nik Bonitto could step into a starting role in Week 3.
Browning (foot) didn't practice Wednesday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports. Browning sustained a foot injury during the first half of Sunday's loss to the Steelers, and following Wednesday's DNP, it appears he could be in jeopardy of missing some time. If the Ohio State product is unable to upgrade to limited work either Thursday or Friday, Nik Bonitto will likely start in Browning's place in Week 3.
Browning (foot) has been declared out for the remainder of Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports. Browning was initially deemed questionable after suffering the foot injury but has since been ruled out. Nik Bonitto started the second half in his stead. Clarity about Browning's injury and his status moving forward should come after the contest and/or during the practice week.
Browning is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Steelers due to a foot injury, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports. Browning did not record a tackle before exiting Sunday's game. While Browning is sidelined, Nik Bonitto and Jonah Elliss are candidates to see more snaps at linebacker alongside starters Alex Singleton, Cody Barton and Jonathon Cooper.
