From 20 Snaps to a Full Load: Riley Moss Says He's Ready for Arizona
Good news for Broncos Country on the other side of the field from Pat Surtain II: Riley Moss is all the way back.
**Our Take:** Getting Moss back at full speed matters as much as any Surtain update. A healthy Moss lets Denver stop patching the cornerback room and play its defense.
Per The Gazette, Moss says he's off his pitch count and ready for full duty. "We're good, baby," he said after Thursday's practice. He fractured rib cartilage Oct. 4 at San Francisco, missed one game, then returned against Seattle on Oct. 15 but played just 20 snaps.
"I was only in for certain personnel and stuff, just to kind of get ramped back up," Moss said. He has been a full participant in practice this week.
It's the second time he's hurt those ribs this year, first in an August preseason game and again tackling Mike Evans. "A lot of twisting, a lot of movements like that kind of irritate it, and that's kind of my job," he told Denver Sports' Andrew Mason. Surtain was limited again Thursday with his ankle.
**What to watch:** Whether Moss plays every defensive snap Sunday at Arizona, and Friday's final injury report on Surtain.
