  "account": "The Denver Broncos are set to face the Los Angeles Chargers in their Week 5 matchup on Sunday night. Denver recently suffered a 24-14 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, and now the team faces an injury blow to their offense. According to ESPN's Ian Rapoport, wide receiver Pat Bryant will be placed on injured reserve due to an ankle injury. The 23-year-old wide receiver is expected to miss the next four games for the Broncos, with a return not anticipated until at least their November 8 game against the Carolina Panthers. Bryant's absence will undoubtedly challenge the Broncos, as the 23-year-old has been a key part of their offense. So far this season, Bryant has contributed one touchdown, nine receptions, and 133 receiving yards in four games. As a rookie last season, he had one touchdown, 31 receptions, and 378 receiving yards in 15 games. The team will now need to adjust without Bryant's presence for at least the next four weeks.",
  "summary": "The Denver Broncos are placing receiver Pat Bryant on injured reserve, meaning he will be out for at least the next four weeks.",
