There is a timetable for Gregory's return.

Gregory told reporters he was fine after the game, but he didn't want to talk about the injury.

He signed a five-year, $70 million contract with the Broncos in March after five years with the Cowboys. He had knee surgery in January and was concerned about his health when he accepted the deal.

He didn't play more than 14 games in a season with Dallas because of violating the league's substance abuse policy. Gregory was suspended for two games in each of the last three years.

In the first four games of his Broncos career, he had nine tackles, two sacks and two forced turnovers.

With a Thursday game against the Indianapolis Colts, the Broncos will be short-handed. According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, running back Javonte Williams will miss the rest of the season due to injuries.

TheInjuries are starting to add up for a Broncos team that is off to a 2-2 start that includes ugly victories over the Houston Texans and San Francisco 49ers. Without Williams in the backfield and Gregory on defense, it will be harder to keep up in the AFC West.
