Denver placed Compton (back) on its injured reserve list Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
After finally making his season debut in Week 15, Compton is just not healthy enough to play and will now have to wait until 2023 to potentially make a return to the field. The move will likely leave Quinn Bailey as the Broncos' primary backup at both tackle spots for the rest of the year.
