ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) - Denver running back Correll Buckhalter
missed a third consecutive practice Friday because of an ankle
injury.

It appears rookie Knowshon Moreno will start in his place Sunday
when the Broncos host the New England Patriots.

Buckhalter, who sprained his left ankle last Sunday, leads the
NFL with 7.2 yards per carry and leads the team with 267 yards
rushing. But Moreno, who has shaken off a knee sprain that
sidelined him for the final three weeks of the preseason, also has
become a force in Denver's fourth-ranked rushing attack.
