Ball (groin) did not practice Wednesday, ESPN.com reports.

The report suggests that the Broncos hope that Ball can return to the practice field within the next two weeks, but at this stage, his return is not imminent. The same applies to fellow RB Ronnie Hillman, which sets the stage for C.J. Anderson to continue to head the team's backfield Sunday against the Chiefs.

Ball (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, the Broncos' official site reports.

As expected, with previous reports suggesting that Ball is expected to miss at least two-to-three weeks. With Ronnie Hillman also sidelined, C.J. Anderson is slated to head the Broncos' Week 12 backfield, with Juwan Thompson and Kapri Bibbs on hand to serve in complementary roles.

Ball (groin) did not practice Wednesday, ESPN's Jeff Legwold reports.

While not officially ruled out this week by the Broncos, the ESPN report suggests that Ball is expected to miss at least two-to-three weeks. With Ronnie Hillman also sidelined, C.J. Anderson is on track to head the Broncos' Week 12 backfield, with Juwan Thompson also in the mix.

Ball, who re-strained his groin injury Sunday, is expected to miss the next two or three weeks, the Denver Post reports.

While the Broncos have yet to confirm that Ball will miss time, it looks safe to assume that he will due to his Week 11 setback. With Ronnie Hillman also expected to miss additional time with a foot injury, the Broncos' Week 12 backfield is slated to be led by C.J. Anderson, with Juwan Thompson and Kapri Bibbs in reserve.

Ball -- who aggravated his groin injury Sunday against the Rams -- has an MRI on tap Monday, Mike Klis of the Denver Post reports.

Tight end Julius Thomas suffered an ankle injury Sunday and Emmanuel Sanders suffered a concussion in the game, but of the three, Klis speculates that Ball's injury may be the most serious. In a scenario where Ball is forced to miss additional time, C.J. Anderson would be in line to continue to head the Broncos' backfield, with Ronnie Hillman out with a foot injury.

Ball (groin), who acknowledged he that didn't feel right after his first few plays in Sunday's loss to the Rams, said afterward that it's "hard to tell" how much time he'll miss, ESPN's Jeff Legwold reports.

While this nugget does not provide much clarity with regard to Ball's availability going forward, the running back did not immediately downplay his injury, which suggests that his Week 12 status is cloudy at this stage.

Though Ball suited up Sunday, he did not return to action after aggravating his groin injury for a second time, NFL.com reports.

We'll monitor Ball's status in the coming days, though given that he appeared to be limping noticeably prior to his exit from Sunday's game, his Week 12 status is cloudy. With Ball not logging a carry or catch (on two targets) Sunday, C.J. Anderson headed the Broncos' backfield, recording nine carries for 29 yards and eight catches for 86 yards.

Though Ball re-entered Sunday's game against the Rams after suffering a groin injury, he appeared to aggravate the issue and is questionable to return.

While the Broncos haven't ruled Ball out for the rest of Sunday's game, after seeing him limp off the field, we'd be surprised if he re-entered the contest.

Ball suffered a groin injury Sunday against the Rams, though his return to the game is listed as probable, ESPN's Jeff Legwold reports.

It remains to be seen if Ball re-enters the contest, but that he's listed as probable to return suggests that his injury may simply have been a minor tweak.

Ball (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams, and while he is listed as the No. 2 running back behind starter C.J. Anderson, ESPN's Chris Mortensen said the team will ride the hot hand if one develops between Ball, Anderson and third-stringer Juwan Thompson.

Ball has not played since Week 5, but it was widely speculated that he would not regain his starting spot from Ronnie Hillman, who played well in his absence. However, Hillman could miss up to six weeks after suffering a foot injury last Sunday, and Anderson is getting the start Sunday after racking up 163 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown in Hillman's absence a week ago. The three-headed committee makes it tough to comfortably start Ball in most fantasy formats, especially with Anderson getting the first crack at touches.

Ball (groin) will be the No. 2 running back behind C.J. Anderson for Sunday's game against the Rams, the Denver Post reports.

Ball is making his return after suffering a groin injury back in Week 5 against the Cardinals, but after Anderson's excellent performance last Sunday against the Raiders (163 yards and one touchdown), he'll get the start with Ronnie Hillman out with an ankle injury. Ball is still likely to get a few touches, but he appears to no longer be the workhorse back he was earlier this season.

Ball will be the backup behind C.J. Anderson when he returns from his groin injury Sunday against the Rams, ESPN.com reports.

Ball began the season as the starter, but he has been sidelined since suffering the groin injury in Week 5 against the Cardinals. Backup Ronnie Hillman played exceptionally well in Ball's absence and was expected to keep the starting job until he suffered an ankle injury last Sunday against the Raiders that will keep him out for at least two weeks. With Anderson totaling 163 yards and a touchdown in Hillman's absence, he will get his first-career start as the Broncos ease Ball back in.

Ball (groin) practiced fully all week and is in line to suit up Sunday against the Rams, ESPN's Jeff Legwold reports.

With fellow running back Ronnie Hillman out, the report indicates that in his anticipated return, Ball (officially listed as probable) will be a part of the Broncos' running back rotation Sunday, while suggesting that C.J. Anderson is expected to start the contest, based on his solid showing in relief of Hillman in Week 10. While Ball figures to re-enter the equation in some form of time-share with Anderson and Juwan Thompson to a lesser degree, it's not hard to imagine his role increasing incrementally in the coming weeks, assuming no injury setbacks.

Ball (groin) practiced fully Wednesday, ESPN.com reports.

Ball practiced in a limited fashion last week, with Wednesday's session marking the first time he has fully participated in practice since suffering a right groin injury back on Oct. 5. Assuming no setbacks, Ball is on track to suit up Sunday against the Rams, a case of good timing, with Ronnie Hillman now expected to miss 2-3 weeks. Upon his anticipated return, Ball figures to work in tandem with C.J. Anderson (who recorded 163 combined yards this past Sunday against the Raiders), with Juwan Thompson also on hand.

Ball (right groin injury) is poised to return to the Broncos' lineup after missing the team's last five games, according to ESPN's Jeff Legowld.

The report adds that the Broncos are hopeful Ball, who was able to practice on a limited basis last week, will be able to move to full participation at some point this week. Ball's potential return to the mix is of added import with news that Ronnie Hillman is dealing with a foot sprain that has coach John Fox calling him "day-to-day," while both ESPN and the Denver Post suggest that Hillman could miss two-to-three weeks.

Ball (groin) could get his starting job back in Week 11 against the Rams, with Ronnie Hillman sidelined for two weeks with a midfoot sprain suffered Sunday against the Raiders.

Hillman was playing very well in Ball's absence, leaving many to believe that he would hold onto the job when Ball returned. However, the injury opened the door for C.J. Anderson, who accounted for 163 yards and a touchdown against the Raiders, a performance that is likely to get him a fair number of touches in Week 11, even with Ball back.

Ball (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

With Ball still out, and presumably targeting a return next weekend against the Rams, Ronnie Hillman is once again in line to head the Broncos' rushing attack on Sunday.

Ball (groin) is not slated to suit up Sunday against the Raiders, according to ESPN's Jeff Legwold.

We'll confirm Ball's official status upon the release of the Broncos' Week 10 inactives, but per the report, Ball may have a chance to play against the Rams next week.

Though Ball (groin) impressed coach John Fox while turning in limited practices this week, the Denver Post suggests that it would be a surprise if the running back -- who is officially listed as questionable by the Broncos -- played Sunday against the Raiders.

The report suggests that a more plausible scenario is one in which Ball would be on pace to play next week at St. Louis, though the running back's Week 10 status still remains worth tracking in advance of Sunday's 4:05 ET kickoff against the Raiders. In the event that Ball is held out on Sunday, Ronnie Hillman would once again be in line to head the Broncos' rushing attack.

Ball (groin) appears unlikely to play Sunday against the Raiders after being unable to practice fully any day this week, the Denver Post reports.

The Post notes that players coming off long absences traditionally don't play until putting in a week of full practices, something Ball was unable to do. As a result, Ronnie Hillman is expected to start once again, with Ball more likely returning in Week 11 against the Rams.
