Broncos | Pat Bryant 'right back into the mix', plays 68% of snaps vs. Panthers Mon Nov 9, 07:36 AM
Broncos WR Pat Bryant was "right back into the mix" in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Panthers, playing 68% of the offensive snaps in his return from an ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: Only WR Courtland Sutton (85%) played more among Denver's wide receivers, ahead of WR Troy Franklin (55%), WR Marvin Mims Jr. (25%), and WR Jaylen Waddle (19%), who left with a concussion. Bryant caught four passes for 56 yards and a touchdown. If Waddle can't make it through the concussion protocol, Bryant could see additional targets in Week 10. |

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle played 19% of snaps before leaving with concussion Mon Nov 9, 07:36 AM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle played just 19% of the offensive snaps in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Panthers before leaving with a concussion. WRs Courtland Sutton (85%), Pat Bryant (68%) and Troy Franklin (55%) led Denver's receivers in snaps.

Broncos | Bryant catches 4 passes for 56 yards, a touchdown in win over Panthers Sun Nov 8, 04:15 PM
Denver Broncos WR Pat Bryant caught 4 passes for 56 yards and a touchdown on 5 targets in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Carolina Panthers. He finished with 13.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) without a projection.
| Footballguys view: Bryant played a big role in the second half after Jaylen Waddle left with a concussion. He has arguably the best chemistry with Bo Nix of any of the Broncos receivers. Bryant isn't worth carrying through the bye in typical leagues with Waddle likely back on the field in Week 11 after the team's bye, but he could be a waiver-wire pickup eventually with the Broncos facing a weak second-half schedule. |

Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle caught 1 pass for 22 yards on 1 target in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Carolina Panthers. He was projected for 10.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 2.7.

Broncos | Jaylen Waddle out with concussion vs. Panthers Sun Nov 8, 02:44 PM
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Panthers with a concussion. Waddle had been evaluated for a possible concussion earlier in the game.
| Footballguys view: The Broncos passing game did not miss a beat after Waddle -- who finished with one catch for 22 yards -- left the game. Pat Bryant returned from injured reserve this week and picked up the slack, along with Courtland Sutton stepping up in Waddle's absence. Both players scored and helped the Broncos move the sticks with catches and pass interference penalties drawn against the Panthers beleaguered secondary. Denver has a bye next week, so Waddle may not miss a game. |

Broncos | Jonah Coleman starts vs. Panthers, J.K. Dobbins in on second series Sun Nov 8, 01:42 PM
Broncos rookie RB Jonah Coleman got the start in Sunday's game against the Panthers. Coleman picked up six yards on his first carry and later took a delayed handoff for an eight-yard gain to set up first-and-goal at the 4 on the opening drive, which ended in a field goal. RB J.K. Dobbins checked in on Denver's second series and immediately ripped off an 11-yard gain on first down.

Broncos | Sean Payton says Pat Bryant has practiced well enough to be activated from IR Fri Nov 6, 04:22 PM
Broncos head coach Sean Payton said on Friday that WR Pat Bryant has had a good week of practice. Asked whether it was good enough for Bryant to be activated from injured reserve, Payton said: "Yes." Bryant, on IR with an ankle injury since early October, returned to practice on Wednesday and was a full participant on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Pat Bryant was staking a claim to be the team's secondary receiver, seemingly taking the job from Courtland Sutton. Payton likes to play everyone on the depth chart, which makes it a tad frustrating to start any of the Broncos receivers. However, Bryant is a must-roster player in all formats, as he showed some serious upside early this season before his ankle injury. He's a risky start this week, but fantasy managers will have more confidence playing him after the bye based on his performance and usage. |

Broncos | J.K. Dobbins' name came up in trade talks, deal less likely with Harvey on IR Fri Nov 6, 11:02 AM
Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins' name came up in trade talks ahead of Tuesday's deadline, SI's Albert Breer reported. A deal could be less likely now that RB RJ Harvey is on injured reserve, according to Breer. Dobbins has struggled this season, with rookie RB Jonah Coleman emerging in the backfield.
| Footballguys view: It's interesting that the Broncos appear to be in the market to buy and sell running backs at the trade deadline. They have been rumored to be in trade talks for both Jonathan Taylor and Breece Hall, and Dobbins could be part of the return in one of those deals. Historically, the NFL trade deadline is a letdown. But it seems like there's more smoke regarding contenders and running backs this year than normal. The official deadline is next Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET, and we'll update here with any trades. |

Broncos | Pat Bryant practices in full on Thursday Thu Nov 5, 05:30 PM
Broncos WR Pat Bryant (ankle), who is on injured reserve, practiced in full on Thursday. Bryant returned to practice on Wednesday, opening his 21-day activation window.
| Footballguys view: There is some optimism Bryant can play against the Panthers in Week 9 (two full practices provide that optimism). Upon his return from this ankle injury, the Broncos may ease him back into action. Bryant is competing for the no.3 spot on the depth chart behind Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton. |

Broncos | Sean Payton 'good with the rotation' at RB when asked about J.K. Dobbins' workload Wed Nov 4, 05:40 PM
Broncos head coach Sean Payton said on Wednesday, "We're good with the rotation," at running back, in response to a question about whether the team is load-managing RB J.K. Dobbins. The comment was not a trade deadline smoke signal. Dobbins played 13 snaps to RB Jonah Coleman's 41 in Sunday's win over the Chiefs.
| Footballguys view: Coleman is the lead back, but Dobbins might get a "ceremonial" start again. We like Coleman to do more going forward, and he could post RB1 numbers against the Panthers in Week 9. Dobbins is more of a "what the heck" flex in his limited role. |

Broncos | Pat Bryant returns to practice, 21-day activation window opened Wed Nov 4, 04:44 PM
Broncos WR Pat Bryant returned to practice on Wednesday, opening his 21-day window to be activated from injured reserve. His return was expected. Bryant was placed on injured reserve on Oct. 9 with an ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: Bryant could be back this week for the game against the Panthers. However, the Broncos have a bye in Week 10, so Bryant could get an extra week of rest if the team doesn't think he's quite ready to get back on the field. |

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 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 out carried 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. |

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 | 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 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. |
