Fant (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.
Fant aggravated an existing ankle injury during Sunday's loss to the Falcons, but he was able to return to the contest to finish with three receptions for 45 yards. Despite the second-year tight end having tending to the injury off and on since early October, coach Vic Fangio expects that Fant will continue to play through it. Fant has already been taking on most of the snaps at tight end this season, and the Broncos may be forced to rely on him even more moving forward after top backup Albert Okwuegbunam (knee) sustained a season-ending ACL tear last week.
