Dealing with knee injury Adkins (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Cowboys, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Adkins suffered an apparent knee injury in the second half, and his status for the rest of the game is now up in the air. In his absence, Evan Engram will continue to handle the majority of the workload at tight end versus Dallas.

Two catches in Week 7 win Adkins played 26 of the Broncos' 81 snaps on offense and finished with two catches for 20 yards on three targets in Sunday's 33-32 win over the Giants.

Impact Adkins recorded a 16-yard touchdown reception in the Broncos' 13-11 win over the Jets in London in Week 6, but he's otherwise offered little fantasy utility in his backup role at tight end behind starter Evan Engram. Through five appearances on the season, Adkins has played fewer than half of the Broncos' offensive snaps on each occasion and has produced a 6-48-1 receiving line on nine targets.
