Denver Broncos head coach Gary Kubiak stated Tuesday morning that all of his players have been checked for injuries and cleared by the team’s medical staff after Monday’s minor bus accident.
Following the team’s workout at Stanford University on Monday, three of the Broncos’ buses became involved in a crash on Highway 101. According to KUSA-TV in Denver, multiple players complained about feeling soreness and headaches.
The accident happened after a driver traveling ahead of the Broncos’ caravan made an illegal lane change in front of the police vehicles that were escorting the buses. One of the buses slammed on its break and a chain reaction ensued, which caused the second bus to hit the back of the first, and the third bus hitting the second. One of the buses was left unusable due to a broken windshield.
“Obviously, it scared some guys. I think we’re good, ready to go, and it’s behind us,” Kubiak said. “And it’s behind us because everyone is fine.”
