Denver Broncos cornerback Riley Moss left the Week 2 preseason game against the Green Bay Packers due to a rib injury. The injury occurred early in the first quarter during a play where Moss recovered a fumble, but the ruling was overturned after review. Moss was deemed questionable to return and went to the locker room after being evaluated in the medical tent. Head coach Sean Payton provided little information post-game, stating only, "Good. We’ll see." Moss was a starter in all 19 games for the Broncos last season and is in the final year of his rookie contract.
