–Quarterback Case Keenum is 241 yards passing shy of 10,000 for his career.
–Wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders is one reception shy of taking sole possession of ninth place on the franchise’s all-time list for career receptions. He enters the game tied with Brandon Marshall for ninth place (327).
–Kicker Brandon McManus is one field goal short of 100 for his career. He kicked three field goals in last week’s loss to Kansas City. Overall, McManus as made 109 of 131 field-goal attempts for percentage (83.2 percent) in team history.
–With a team-leading four sacks, Von Miller is on pace for another double-digit sack season. He has had at least 10 sacks in each of the previous four seasons, the longest active streak in the NFL. He is one of three players in NFL history to record double-digit sacks in at least six of their first seven seasons in the league.
–Cornerback Chris Harris Jr. says he sees some similar attributes in Jets quarterback Sam Darnold and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. “He’s extending plays like (Chiefs quarterback Patrick) Mahomes,” Harris said. “Great footwork. The Jaguars dropped about three picks last week, so that’s something. I definitely noticed that. He’s going to force it in there. He’s going to try to make all the throws. He has no fear and he’s playing to win. That’s one thing you like from a rookie.”
–Right tackle Jared Veldheer missed practice time this week because of a knee injury suffered in Monday night’s loss to Kansas City and he remains iffy for the Jets game. Tackle Billy Turner saw action against the Chiefs in Veldheer’s place and he’s expected to start if Veldheer is unable to go this week.
BY THE NUMBERS: The Broncos continue to have concerns about punter Marquette King, who shanked a 35-yard punt at a key part of Monday Night’s game against Kansas City, allowing the Chiefs a somewhat short field ahead of one of their fourth-quarter two touchdowns. On top of that, King has missed practice time this week with a thigh injury. In four games with the Broncos, King is averaging 39.7 net yards per punt and 44.1 yards per punt overall. Both numbers are career lows for the former Oakland Raiders punter.
