Several Denver Broncos players returned to practice on Wednesday as the team began preparations for their Week 15 matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

Defensive tackle D.J. Jones, who missed last week’s game due to an ankle injury, was a full participant in practice. Tight end Nate Adkins also made his return after being sidelined since Week 8 with a knee injury; he participated on a limited basis. Guard Ben Powers, recently designated to return from injured reserve following a biceps issue, was similarly listed as limited in practice.

Wide receiver Pat Bryant did not participate in Wednesday’s session because of a hamstring injury.

The Broncos, holding an 11-2 record, are set to play the NFC North-leading Packers (9-3-1) at Empower Field at Mile High on Sunday, December 14 at 2:25 p.m. MT.
