Tillman (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
With consecutive DNPs to begin Week 4 prep, Tillman's status for Sunday's clash in San Francisco is looking very cloudy. Denver's practice report Friday should reveal if Tillman has even a chance of suiting up against the 49ers.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Game-high 12 tackles in Week 3 win
Rotowire
Jones posted 12 tackles (10 solo) and one pass defense during the Broncos' 30-26 win over the Rams on Sunday.
Sunday was the first time since Week 3 of the 2025 season that Jones posted double-digit tackles, and his 10 solo tackles were one shy from matching his career high that he set in Week 6 of the 2024 campaign against the Chargers. Jones has played almost every single defensive snap and is up to 22 combined tackles through three regular-season games, which is second-most on the Broncos behind Alex Singleton (33).

Broncos' Talanoa Hufanga: Huge fourth quarter in Week 3 win
Rotowire
Hufanga recorded five tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks and three pass defenses (one interception and a pick-six) during the Broncos' 30-26 win over the Rams in Week 3.
Hufanga's heroics in the fourth quarter was a driving force behind the Broncos' come-from-behind victory this past Sunday. It started early in the period with a 10-yard sack on Matthew Stafford on a third-and-5, leading to a 48-yard field goal by Harrison Mevis. Hufanga followed that up by picking off a Stafford pass intended for Kyren Williams, which Hufanga returned 66 yards for a touchdown to give the Broncos the lead. The sixth-year safety wrapped up his career night with a game-sealing interception off Stafford in the end zone on the final play of the contest. Hufanga and the Broncos will look to carry their momentum into a Week 4 road tilt against the 49ers this Sunday.

Rotowire
Moss (ribs) wasn't listed on the Broncos' injury report Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
