Broncos | Sean Payton won't answer 'internet gossip' on reported Jonathan Taylor interest Mon Nov 2, 11:51 AM
Broncos head coach Sean Payton declined on Monday to address reported interest in Colts RB Jonathan Taylor and other skill players. "George (Paton) and I will spend time looking at the team and anywhere we can improve it, but I'm not going to answer questions about internet gossip," Payton said.
| Footballguys view: The Broncos had been reported among the teams interested in Taylor after the Colts were said to be open to trading him. We'll be watching for more. The trade deadline is Nov. 10. |

Broncos | Troy Franklin's role expands vs. Chiefs Mon Nov 2, 08:50 AM
Broncos WR Troy Franklin's role expanded in Sunday's win over the Chiefs, according to the team's offensive snap counts.
| Footballguys view: This is likely not a permanent condition. Franklin saw more work as WR Jaylen Waddle's snaps were reduced after he dealt with a chest injury. We'll monitor Waddle's health closely in coming days. The Broncos play the Panthers in Week 9. |

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle's snaps reduced vs. Chiefs after chest injury Mon Nov 2, 08:50 AM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle's role was reduced in Sunday's win over the Chiefs after he dealt with a chest injury, according to the team's offensive snap counts.
| Footballguys view: Waddle was active for the game after being listed as questionable with a chest injury. He caught 3 passes on 6 targets for 39 yards, with a touchdown and a two-point conversion, making him WR21 through Sunday's games. We'll monitor Waddle's health this week, with the Broncos set to play the Panthers. |

Broncos | Jonah Coleman plays 41 snaps to J.K. Dobbins' 13 vs. Chiefs Mon Nov 2, 08:50 AM
Broncos rookie RB Jonah Coleman played 41 offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Chiefs. RB J.K. Dobbins played 13 snaps.
| Footballguys view: Coleman outcarried Dobbins 11 to 7, and the rookie ran 16 routes to Dobbins' 2. Coleman had a 17% target share. As Pro Football Focus' Nathan Jahnke noted, Coleman was already the top waiver-wire pickup last week, but he's a must-add in leagues where he's available. There has been talk of Denver considering trading for a running back. Still, the team might reconsider based on Coleman's 100-yard performance, including a 51-yard gain after catching a short pass from Bo Nix to set up Denver's go-ahead touchdown. The Broncos play the Panthers in Week 9. |

Broncos | Dobbins held to 13 yards on 7 carries in win over Chiefs Sun Nov 1, 07:40 PM
Denver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins ran 7 times for 13 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. He was projected for 8.0 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 1.3.
| Footballguys view: Dobbins, who had 14 snaps in this one, has fallen well behind rookie Jonah Coleman, who had 40 snaps. According to Pro Football Focus' Nathan Jahnke, Dobbins will likely still receive five to 10 carries per game, but that's not enough to put him in fantasy starting lineups. He is just a handcuff at this point. Once RJ Harvey returns from IR, Dobbins could be phased out of the offense completely. |

Broncos | Jonah Coleman handles the bulk of the workload Sun Nov 1, 07:25 PM
Denver Broncos rookie running back Jonah Coleman turned in a breakout performance in Week 8, leading the team to a 28-24 come-from-behind victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.
| Footballguys view: Though his day got off to a sluggish start, Coleman exploded for a pair of big, late plays to seal the win and likely a leading role going forward. As ESPN.com's Tristan Cockcroft noted, Coleman finished with 20.4 fantasy points, pacing the Broncos backfield in snap rate (68%), carries (11), and touches (15) for the second consecutive week. Coleman's receiving usage was notable (16 routes, five targets). The Broncos will face Carolina in Week 9. |

Broncos | WR Courtland Sutton returns to the game Sun Nov 1, 05:51 PM
Broncos WR Courtland Sutton has returned to Sunday's game against the Chiefs after being injured in the second quarter.
| Footballguys view: Sutton took a big shot in the ribs on a catch up the left sideline from QB Bo Nix. Sutton needed attending to after the hit. Sutton finished the day with four catches for 53 yards. We'll monitor Sutton's status when the Broncos begin preparing to take on the Panthers in Week 9. |

RB Adam Prentice was in as the sole back on three third downs and on one more snap, when he had a 10-yard catch. Denver ended the first quarter at the Kansas City 33-yard line after a 23-yard pass from Bo Nix to Courtland Sutton.

Broncos | Jonah Coleman to start vs. Chiefs with RJ Harvey out Sat Oct 31, 11:14 AM
Broncos rookie RB Jonah Coleman will get the start against the Chiefs on Sunday with RB RJ Harvey sitting out due to a knee injury suffered in practice this week. Harvey's injury is not considered serious, per reports. Coleman was activated off injured reserve last week and led Denver's running backs in snaps, touches and yards.
| Footballguys view: Coleman jumps to the starting lineup for the first time in his career. He looked good last week against the Cardinals, but the Broncos have a much tougher game this week at home against the Chiefs. JK Dobbins will provide some backup touches, but Coleman should get a healthy workload no matter how the game unfolds as he can be trusted as a runner and receiver out of the backfield. Fantasy GMs should see him as an RB2/flex option with upside in his first start. |

RJ Harvey ruled out for Week 8 vs. Chiefs Fri Oct 30, 03:59 PM
Broncos RB RJ Harvey (knee) was not present at practice on Friday. Harvey popped up on the injury report as limited on Thursday, when he was seen for only a portion of the practice viewing period. Friday's injury report ruled him out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
| Footballguys view: FP to LP to DNP isn't a good progression for any player in a week of practice, and Harvey has now been ruled out for Sunday. The Broncos play in the afternoon slate, so fantasy managers will have to plan accordingly. The best-case scenario is having J.K. Dobbins or Jonah Coleman as a pivot, as both would benefit from a Harvey absence. But you should pick up any other player in the late slate or primetime games. |

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle returns to practice as limited on Thursday Thu Oct 29, 05:22 PM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle (chest) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday after not practicing to start the week. Denver hosts the Chiefs on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Waddle hasn't been doing much for the Broncos this year outside of a big game against the Jaguars. He's back in action, but the chest injury is something they'll monitor closely on Friday. Waddle is more of a WR3/flex play with his current role in a struggling offense. |

Broncos | J.K. Dobbins says reduced workload is about staying fresh, not losing starting job Thu Oct 29, 05:15 PM
Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins indicated on Thursday that he believes his reduced workload is Denver trying to keep him fresh rather than him losing the starting job. Dobbins said rookie RB Jonah Coleman's uptick in work came when the Broncos were winning late and that all he cares about is winning. He added that if he wasn't getting carries and Denver was losing, "s***, I'm gonna be mad as f***."
| Footballguys view: Dobbins was salty with reporters on Thursday. He's getting work with Coleman and Harvey in a three-headed RBBC. With Coleman impressing and looking to do more, and with Harvey having the pass-catching role, there may not be much for Dobbins in certain matchups. We've got him as a deep flex play in this current role. |

Broncos RB RJ Harvey was present for only a portion of the media viewing period at Thursday's practice. Harvey's status on Thursday's injury report will be one to watch, along with those of DT Zach Allen and WR Jaylen Waddle. Denver hosts the Chiefs on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Harvey popped up on the injury report with a knee issue. After not being on the injury report on Wednesday, this is a concern. The team is looking for Jonah Coleman to do more, and JK Dobbins might not yet take a backseat to the rookie. |

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle does not practice Wednesday ahead of Chiefs game Wed Oct 28, 05:49 PM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle (chest) did not practice on Wednesday ahead of Denver's Week 8 game against the Chiefs. Waddle played in the Broncos' Week 7 win over the Cardinals. The Broncos will share another practice report on Thursday before releasing Week 8 game statuses on Friday.
| Footballguys view: Waddle aggravated a chest injury in Sunday's win over the Cardinals. Facing the Chiefs at home on Sunday, the Broncos offense would benefit from Waddle's presence. He's only really had one good/big game this year as Bo Nix has been struggling. Nix seems to be bouncing back after a good game against the Cardinals, and we'll see if the Broncos offense can produce at a better level -- with or without Waddle in Week 8. |

Broncos | J.K. Dobbins fades after first drive as Jonah Coleman leads RBs in snaps Mon Oct 26, 08:56 AM
Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins had 3 carries for 15 yards on Denver's first drive of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, then just 3 carries for 8 yards over the team's final nine drives.
| Footballguys view: Rookie RB Jonah Coleman, back from injured reserve, led the Broncos' running backs with 30 offensive snaps (49%). RB RJ Harvey played 16 snaps and Dobbins 14. The good news is Dobbins salvaged his day with a goal-line touchdown run. While Dobbins will still have some value, Coleman appears to be on a path to lead this backfield down the stretch. |

Broncos | Rookie Jonah Coleman leads Broncos RBs with 30 snaps in return from IR Mon Oct 26, 07:23 AM
Broncos rookie RB Jonah Coleman led the team's running backs with 30 offensive snaps (49%) in Sunday's win over the Cardinals, his first game back after being activated from injured reserve. RB RJ Harvey played 16 snaps and RB J.K. Dobbins played 14.
| Footballguys view: As Pro Football Focus reminded readers, Coleman, in his first game back from a stint on IR, led the backfield in snaps on early downs, third downs, and in short-yardage situations. He averaged 6.0 yards per carry, compared to 3.8 for Dobbins and 2.0 for Harvey. However, Harvey scored a receiving touchdown, while Dobbins handled the team's lone goal-line snap and turned it into a rushing touchdown. Given the workload, Coleman is a clear top waiver-wire target this week in any league where he remains available. |

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle's injury categorized as a chest injury Sun Oct 25, 07:35 PM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle's injury was categorized as a chest injury by the team before Sunday's win over the Cardinals ended.
| Footballguys view: The injury occurred on a reverse with under five minutes remaining in the 30-16 triumph. Waddle fumbled the pitch from quarterback Bo Nix and dove to recover the ball as a defender landed on top of him. Broncos head coach Sean Payton criticized his own play call on the reverse in which Waddle was injured. Waddle caught four passes for 48 yards on Sunday. He has 26 receptions for 276 yards and one score through seven games. We'll have more on Waddle's status for the team's Week 8 game against the Chiefs in coming days. |

Broncos | Nix throws for 222 yards, a touchdown in win over Cardinals Sun Oct 25, 07:31 PM
Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix completed 15 of 29 passes for 222 yards with 1 touchdown and ran 7 times for 73 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He was projected for 16.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 26.2.
| Footballguys view: Nix, who has been reluctant to throw downfield to this point in the season, connected with Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton for a combined seven completions for 93 yards, and his screen pass to RJ Harvey went for a 52-yard touchdown, finally delivering some legitimate production. His 62-yard scoring run added to that. The Broncos play the Chiefs in Week 8. |

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle down after 'gadget call', lands hard on left shoulder Sun Oct 25, 07:09 PM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle went down on the field after a gadget play in Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Waddle landed hard on his left shoulder and looked "very uncomfortable" as he was assisted off the ground.
| Footballguys view: Waddle got hurt recovering a fumble on a broken play. The Broncos got a win and Bo Nix should be more confident heading into a showdown with the Chiefs in Week 8, but losing Waddle for the game would be a big blow for this inconsistent-at-best offense. Waddle was at seven targets and four catches for 48 yards when his afternoon was ended by this injury. |

Broncos | Jonah Coleman questionable for Week 7, needs IR activation Fri Oct 23, 05:10 PM
Broncos RB Jonah Coleman (ankle) was listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 7 game at the Cardinals after being a full participant in practice for the third consecutive day on Friday. Coleman, who was placed on injured reserve following Week 2, began his 21-day practice window on Wednesday and would be eligible to play if he is activated from injured reserve.
| Footballguys view: All signs point to Coleman returning in Week 7. Since Sean Payton took over playcalling, we've seen a shift toward using J.K. Dobbins more than RJ Harvey. It remains to be seen how Coleman will fit into that mix. He's a priority pickup if he's available on the waiver wire, but he's more of a stash than a start this week against the Cardinals. |

Broncos | Jonah Coleman full again, 'trending toward return' for Week 7 Thu Oct 22, 07:41 PM
Broncos rookie RB Jonah Coleman (ankle) was a full practice participant on Thursday for the second consecutive day. Coleman was designated for return from injured reserve on Wednesday and is trending toward a return for Sunday's Week 7 game at the Cardinals.
| Footballguys view: JK Dobbins is the starter, but Fantasy GMs can put Coleman in as a 'what the heck' flex against the Cardinals in Week 7. Coleman may take over in the backfield eventually, but in his first game back from a high-ankle sprain the team should choose to ease him back. |

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle limited again Thursday ahead of Week 7 Thu Oct 22, 07:12 PM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle (chest) remained a limited practice participant on Thursday, his second straight limited session ahead of Sunday's Week 7 game at the Cardinals. The Broncos will release their final practice report and game statuses on Friday.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs aren't trusting the Broncos' passing game - and for good reason. QB Bo Nix has been playing terrible football, and he's only had one good game with Waddle this season. Consider Waddle more of a flex play against the Cardinals in Week 7. The Broncos should bounce back, Nix specifically, as their schedule gets much easier (easiest in the league) over the next 11 games. |

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle limited with chest injury Wednesday, 'one to watch' for Week 7 Wed Oct 21, 07:12 PM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle was limited in practice on Wednesday with a chest injury ahead of Sunday's Week 7 game at the Cardinals. Waddle is considered "one to watch" on the injury report this week. He briefly left last Thursday's win over the Seahawks with a shoulder injury before returning to the game.
| Footballguys view: Waddle is doing little to nothing for Fantasy GMs this year, mainly because QB Bo Nix is playing bad football. Against the Cardinals, the Broncos offense is looking to come to life. We don't have a ton of faith that happens based on the way Nix is playing this year, so Waddle is more of a WR2/flex play - or still even 'what the heck' flex play - in Week 7. |

Broncos | Sean Payton says 'no' to QB change, Broncos sticking with Bo Nix Mon Oct 19, 01:00 PM
Broncos head coach Sean Payton said on Monday that he is not considering a change at quarterback despite QB Bo Nix's struggles during Denver's 4-2 start. "To answer your question, no," Payton said. "He is going to become the byproduct of all the finer things that get improved. The improved play from our offensive line; the more efficient we are relative to downs; and running the football."
| Footballguys view: Nix attempted 27 passes and totaled just 107 yards in Thursday's win over the Seahawks. He was criticized by analysts, including Amazon Prime analyst Ryan Fitzpatrick, who questioned Nix's competitive effort. Denver won despite being outgained, 353-168, mustering just two first downs and 30 yards of offense in the second half. The popular narrative last season was that the Broncos came up short of reaching the Super Bowl because Nix was injured in the Divisional Round. This year, Denver is prevailing despite poor play from its quarterback, who seems averse to throwing the ball and uncomfortable leading the offense. |
