The way things are going this year . no one.
I think Jelks is not eligible to play this season.
He is.
Under NFL rules, Jelks cannot play this season, even if he becomes healthy enough to do so. But if his knee heals and he proves he can replicate his early-college effectiveness, he could factor into the Patriots’ offensive line plans in the future.

FWIW
Might cost the Broncos 60-70 yards of total offense but wont affect the game result in any meaningful way.
Right now the Broncos missing 60 yo 70 yards of offense means, not counting garbage time, they will end up with 60 to 70 yards of offense. The Broncos offense is misfiring so badly they simply cannot afford the loss of one of the precious few productive receivers. Without Thomas they almost have no chance to win unless they run the ball wildly well, they get defensive scores or short field TO FGs, or they win the game by a score of 3-0 or 6-3.
Still a chance for Thomas to play. We'll see. But given the titanic fail they are going through on offense, losing Thomas would be shockingly bad misfortune.
I dont think it matters.
DT is a very overrated player that needs a top notch QB to look as lethal as his contract is. He is not someone who makes your QB better. Losing him would have a negligible effect on the game. The only way they have a shot is successfully running the ball anyway, even if he plays.
