Broncos running back Tyler Badie, who was carted off the field after suffering a back injury on Sunday, has full movement in his arms and legs and is back in Denver with the team, Michael Baca of NFL.com reports. This according to NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport citing a source.
Badie was injured late in the first quarter after taking a big hit to his side from Jets linebacker Quincy Williams, which caused the Broncos RB to fumble. Badie's twisting body landed awkwardly and he was unable to catch his own weight, causing his head and neck to hit the turf hard.
He was able to get off the field after the play, however, it was a scary situation on the sideline once it was clear Badie was in need of medical attention.
Broncos staff tended to Badie, securing his neck and head on a back board. He was carted off the field and ruled out of the game shortly thereafter.
Badie had one rush for zero yards and two receptions for -4 yards in the Broncos' 10-9 win over the Jets.
Rapoport reported Badie's back injury could place him on injured reserve, but the 24-year-old has a chance at returning this season.
