KUSA – It’s been a painful few days for Darian Stewart.

The Broncos’ safety learned this week he had been fined $26,739 for his horse collar tackle on Los Angeles Rams receiver Cooper Kupp last Sunday. Kupp is going to miss a game or so with a knee injury suffered on the play.

Stewart also suffered a neck stinger early in Broncos’ 45-10 win Thursday at Arizona. Head coach Vance Joseph said it was Stewart’s third stinger in three games, an indication he may miss some time.

Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders also learned he was fined $10,026 for his taunting penalty against the Rams. The penalty probably cost the Broncos four points as they wound up getting pushed back 15 yards from the 1 and settled for a field goal.

Broncos sign Jets blocker

To replace left guard Ron Leary, who was officially placed on season-ending reserve Saturday with a torn Achilles, the Broncos signed guard-center Nico Falah off the New York Jets’ practice squad. An undrafted rookie from USC, Falah also spent time with the Tennessee Titans.
