Denver Broncos cornerback Riley Moss and Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle have been ruled out for their teams' upcoming games against the Carolina Panthers after sustaining concussions, according to reports Sunday.
Moss, who wears No. 21 for Denver, and Waddle will miss the Week 10 matchups as they remain in the NFL's concussion protocol. The Broncos visit the Panthers on Sunday, while the Dolphins host Carolina the same day.
Both players suffered head injuries in their respective teams' previous games. Moss was photographed running onto the field at Empower Field at Mile High ahead of Denver's October 15 game against the Seattle Seahawks, but his status for the Panthers game has now been downgraded to out.
The absences deal significant blows to both secondaries and offenses. Moss has emerged as a key contributor in Denver's defensive backfield, while Waddle remains one of Miami's primary receiving targets alongside Tyreek Hill.
