Broncos Guard Quinn Meinerz Playing Through Undiagnosed Illness for Over a Month

Denver Broncos right guard Quinn Meinerz has revealed he is battling an undiagnosed illness that has affected him for over a month, since early October. The first-team All-Pro lineman, who anchors an offensive line allowing the second-fewest sacks in the NFL, missed practice earlier in the month and sat out most of the second half against the Las Vegas Raiders last Thursday before returning for the final drive. Meinerz, who initially attributed symptoms to travel fatigue, stated Thursday that he still lacks answers but is working through it daily. Despite the recurring symptoms, he has played nearly every offensive snap during a demanding schedule. Notably, Meinerz is not listed on the Broncos' injury report for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
