Both of the Broncos’ centers did not practice Tuesday
Offensive line injuries are starting to pile up for the Denver Broncos.
In addition to guard Netane Muti (knee), the Broncos also had two centers sit out Tuesday’s practice.
Fifth-round draft pick Luke Wattenberg (ankle) was joined on the sideline by third-year center Lloyd Cushenberry on Tuesday. After practice, coach Nathaniel Hackett said it was just a rest day for Cushenberry (but the center was seen wearing a sleeve on his right knee/leg).
Fortunately for the Broncos, they have a third option, and he’s the most experienced player among the team’s center candidates.
Graham Glasgow is listed as a guard on Denver’s depth chart, but he has starting experience at center from his time with the Detroit Lions. Glasgow has started 78 games in his career, including a full season at center with the Lions in 2018.
With Dalton Risner and Quinn Meinerz starting at the two guard spots, Glasgow is the team’s top backup swing guard/center, and he was called on at center Tuesday. He’s more than capable of handling pivot duties in a pinch.
