Broncos center J.D. Walton had played all but one snap in the first 37½ games of his NFL career, but he will not play again this season after he suffered a broken ankle late in the first half of the Broncos' 37-6 victory against the Oakland Raiders, Mike Klis of the Denver Post reports.
The Broncos are placing him on injured reserve today.
"Disappointed in the injury, but the guys did a great job and I'm glad we got the win and got back on the right track," said the ever-resilient Walton.
Walton was blocking for running back Lance Ball when Raiders defensive end Jack Crawford inadvertently crashed into the back side of the center's legs as he was making the tackle.
"I'm absolutely sick about J.D. Walton and his potential injury," Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning said. "I haven't heard the official (prognosis) but it sure didn't look good out there. I know how hard he has worked. My heart goes out to him."
