Broncos ORT Ryan Harris missed his fourth straight game in Denver's Week 12 win due to dislocated toes on his right foot, but we hear he will likely be back for the team's next game. He might have even played in Week 12 if the team hadn't faced the abbreviated week of preparation that came with playing on Thanksgiving, sources say. His replacement, second-year OT Tyler Polumbus, has struggled to fill the void. Observers say the offensive line's performance has spiraled downward since Harris sustained his injury. The Broncos have allowed 10 sacks in the four-plus games they have played without Harris after having given up 10 in the first six-plus contests they played with a healthy Harris. QB Kyle Orton, who is already playing on a bad ankle, is at his best when he can sit back in the pocket with time to make his reads, and Harris' return will be welcomed.
