Patrick (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Patrick wasn't able to suit up for Sunday's 31-30 win over the Chargers, but his return to practice as a limited participant is seemingly an encouraging sign. The Broncos will monitor Patrick during practices Thursday and Friday before making a decision regarding his status for a Week 9 game at Atlanta.
