Freeman (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant Wednesday, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.
Following practice, coach Vance Joseph provided an update on Freeman, who has missed Denver's last two games. "[Freeman] looked OK; it wasn't perfect, but he wants to be out there," Joseph said. "If I'm a betting man, I'm betting on Royce that he plays [Sunday against the Chargers].'' While Joseph's comments offer optimism regarding Freeman's Week 11 prospects, it's possible that the rookie ends up officially being listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. EST kickoff. If he does return to action as hoped, Freeman -- who has logged four rushing touchdowns in seven games to date -- would rejoin a backfield committee that tilted in Phillip Lindsay's favor prior to Freeman's ankle injury.
