ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Offensive lineman Billy Turner missed his second consecutive practice as he continues to rehab his knee injury.

"He's just getting extra treatment," Hackett said. "We're making sure he's working through his knee and getting everything right so he can get back here and be full speed."

Turner previously was excused on Wednesday for a personal matter, according to Hackett.

Hackett said Turner was not visiting another doctor.

Wide receiver Tyrie Cleveland (throat), safety Kareem Jackson (rest), inside linebacker Jonas Griffith (elbow), defensive end Marquiss Spencer (knee), guard Netane Muti (knee) and center Lloyd Cushenberry III (knee) also did not practice. Cushenberry appeared at practice in a jersey, but he did not join the rest of the team in full pads or participate in the session.

Wide receiver KJ Hamler took part in practice for the first time in several days, as he wore pads and participated in individual drills.

Tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring) did not participate following the stretching portion of practice.

This was Darby's first practice since Aug. 8, when he suffered a chest contusion while defending a deep pass to Courtland Sutton.

Head Coach Nathaniel Hackett said the team was "resting [Cushenberry] up [and] just making sure he's good."

Inside linebacker Jonas Griffith is expected to miss four to six weeks with an elbow injury.

Inside linebacker Jonas Griffith suffered an elbow injury on the first series against the Cowboys.

"We want to make sure [Gordon's] primed and ready for the season," Head Coach Nathaniel Hackett said.

"[Courtland Sutton's] got a little shoulder thing we're just working through," Head Coach Nathaniel Hackett said.

"They're right on track, and we want those guys for Week 1," Hackett said.
