Tyler Badie returned to Denver on a commercial flight Sunday evening

Broncos running back Tyler Badie is back in Denver, but he did not return to the team’s plane after their 10-9 win over the Jets.

Brandon Kristal of KOA Colorado reports that he and Badie were on same commercial flight back to Denver on Sunday evening. Badie was accompanied by a member of the Broncos’ medical staff.

Badie left the game in the first quarter after taking a shot backwards from Jets linebacker Quincy Williams after catching a pass. Badie, who fumbled the play, went to the sideline and was eventually placed on a board to be carted off the field. He was ruled out due to a back injury and was taken to a local hospital for further evaluation.

On Sunday evening it was reported that Badie will be fine and his return to Denver is a good sign that everything is moving in the right direction.
