  Broncos | Pat Surtain II 'week-to-week' with ankle injury    Mon Oct 5, 02:58 PM

Broncos CB Pat Surtain II suffered a short-term ankle injury in Sunday's loss to the 49ers, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported.

Footballguys view: Surtain is "week-to-week," and one source believes he will be sidelined for about two weeks, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported. CB Jahdae Barron came in for Surtain on Sunday, and it remains to be seen whether either injured player will be placed on short-term injured reserve

  Broncos | Pat Bryant expected to miss 'multiple weeks' with ankle sprain    Mon Oct 5, 12:17 PM

Broncos WR Pat Bryant is expected to miss multiple weeks after suffering an ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the 49ers, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Monday.

Footballguys view: Bryant went down after hauling in a 30-yard reception in the third quarter, his third catch of the game. He was then carted off the field, leaving Denver with Jaylen Waddle, Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims as their four healthy receivers against the 49ers. Denver also has four receivers on the practice squad. The hope is, this won't be a season-ending injury. Bryant's nine targets through the first three games of the 2026 season ranked fourth on the team.

  Broncos | Surtain believed to avoid 'serious long-term injury'; Bryant carted off    Sun Oct 4, 11:57 PM

Broncos CB Pat Surtain II left Sunday's 24-14 loss to the 49ers with an ankle injury and did not return, but he is believed to have avoided a serious long-term injury. CB Riley Moss also left the game with a rib injury and did not return. WR Pat Bryant left the game on a cart.

  Broncos | Cart coming out for Pat Bryant after he was tackled by three 49ers defenders    Sun Oct 4, 06:42 PM

A cart came out for Broncos WR Pat Bryant after he was tackled by three 49ers defenders during Sunday's game in San Francisco. No details on the nature of the injury were immediately available.

Footballguys view: Bryant got bent in multiple directions and it's possible he suffered a serious leg injury. The Broncos pass offense has been uneven after an offseason and summer filled with promise following the trade for Jaylen Waddle. Bo Nix hasn't taken the expected step forward in his third year, and it's going to be hard to do that later this season against an easier part of the schedule if Bryant is out. Nix has been better throwing the ball to Bryant than he has been throwing to Waddle or Courtland Sutton.

  Broncos | Patrick Surtain II leaves with non-contact ankle injury, Riley Moss questionable to return    Sun Oct 4, 05:56 PM

Broncos CB Patrick Surtain II limped off the field with a non-contact ankle injury suffered in coverage during Sunday's game against the 49ers. CB Jahdae Barron replaced him, and at the start of the second half, Barron and CB Kris Abrams-Draine were the Broncos' starting outside cornerbacks. CB Riley Moss was ruled questionable to return with a rib injury.

  Broncos | Jaylen Waddle, Marvin Mims 'WILL play' vs. 49ers; Tillman out with hamstring    Sat Oct 3, 07:46 AM

Broncos WRs Jaylen Waddle and Marvin Mims Jr. will play against the 49ers on Sunday, while DE Dondrea Tillman is out with a hamstring injury, per Friday's updates. For San Francisco, DE Nick Bosa, DE Mykel Williams and DT James Thompson Jr. are out against the Broncos. LB Dre Greenlaw, WR Mike Evans, Keion White and LB Jaden Dugger are questionable.

Footballguys view: Waddle and Mims bring big-play ability to the field on offense and (with Mims) on special teams. Last week, Waddle didn't do much against the Rams. Waddle caught 2-of-7 targets for 10 yards in the Broncos' Week 3 win over the Rams, adding 14 yards on one carry. This week against the 49ers, we like Waddle as a WR2 with upside.

  Broncos | Waddle, Dobbins, Mims full again; DE Dondrea Tillman 'trending towards being out'    Thu Oct 1, 07:14 PM

Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle, RB J.K. Dobbins and WR Marvin Mims Jr. were full participants in practice again on Thursday and look on track to play Sunday against the 49ers. DE Dondrea Tillman appears to be trending toward being out. DT Zach Allen went from a rest day on Wednesday to full participation on Thursday, while DT D.J. Jones got a rest day.

Footballguys view: Waddle was hot in Week 2, and then he was cold in Week 3. We'll see if the team can get him more involved on the road against the 49ers. Having a strong rushing attack would help, but Dobbins looks like he's still shaking off the rust from being injured last year. We like Dobbins as an RB3/flex while Waddle is a WR2/flex for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats.

  Broncos | WR Jaylen Waddle practiced in full Wednesday    Wed Sep 30, 06:45 PM

Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Footballguys view: Reports indicated Waddle was seen wearing a boot at home, but it's seen as a non-serious issue. Waddle should be good to go against the 49ers on Sunday. He was quiet in Week 3 after a monster performance in Week 2. We like Waddle as a WR2/flex with upside in this matchup.

  Broncos | Waddle held to 2 catches for 10 yards in win over Rams    Mon Sep 28, 12:01 AM

Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle ran 1 time for 14 yards and also caught 2 passes for 10 yards on 7 targets in Sunday's 30-26 win over the Los Angeles Rams. He was projected for 12.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 3.4.

  Broncos | Nix throws for 186 yards, two touchdowns in win over Rams    Mon Sep 28, 12:01 AM

Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix completed 17 of 34 passes for 186 yards with 2 touchdowns and 1 interception and added 4 times for 7 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-26 win over the Los Angeles Rams. He was projected for 17.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 21.1.

Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Jeff Legwold suggested, Nix was out of sorts in the first half, but managed to get the Broncos a win, despite a second-half interception. The Broncos scored on two of their first three possessions of the second half to turn a 16-0 Rams lead into a 16-16 game, and Nix led Denver to the game-winning score, a 1-yard QB sneak with 47 seconds left. It was his 12th career game-winning drive -- the most in the NFL since he entered the league in 2024. Still, Nix is QB24 on a points-per-game basis this season.

  Broncos | Jonah Coleman (high-ankle sprain) headed to IR, expected back in late October    Sat Sep 26, 04:26 PM

Broncos rookie RB Jonah Coleman will be placed on short-term injured reserve on Saturday with a high-ankle sprain and will miss the next few games. Coleman is expected back for Denver's game against the Cardinals in late October. He had already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams.

  Broncos | Payton: Evan Engram blocking 'well'    Sat Sep 26, 12:19 AM

Broncos head coach Sean Payton said on Friday that TE Evan Engram is blocking "well," which is part of the reason his snap count is up.

Footballguys view: Payton is right. Engram has done a much better job in that department this season, and it's leading to more playing time. In his first season with the Broncos, Engram was only on the field for around 40 percent of their snaps. This year, that number is pushing towards 60 percent of the snaps. The Broncos are using a tight end by committee with Engram, Nate Adkins, and Adam Trautman. That lessens the fantasy value for Engram even though he's clearly getting more involved. We like him as a TE2 with upside.

  Broncos | Marvin Mims Jr. (foot) questionable for Sunday night vs. Rams    Fri Sep 25, 04:47 PM

Broncos WR Marvin Mims Jr. is questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams with a foot injury.

Footballguys view: Mims has taken a backseat to Jaylen Waddle, Courtland Sutton, Pat Bryant, and Troy Franklin. Even if he is active, you can't trust him as anything more than a unique flyer in DFS.

  Broncos | RJ Harvey, J.K. Dobbins cleared for Sunday; Jonah Coleman ruled out vs. Rams    Fri Sep 25, 04:29 PM

Broncos RB RJ Harvey (hamstring) was a full participant in practice on Friday and was not assigned a game status for Sunday night's Week 3 game against the Rams. Harvey was inactive for Denver's Week 2 win over the Jaguars after being listed as questionable. RB J.K. Dobbins (hip) also has no game status after a second straight full practice, while rookie RB Jonah Coleman (ankle) was ruled out after missing practice for the third consecutive day.

Footballguys view: The Broncos' running back room has been banged up early this year, and they'll have Harvey and Dobbins active in Week 3. Coleman showed flashes in Week 2, and excitement about a growing role was starting to build. With Coleman out, expect Dobbins to handle the early-down work and Harvey to see the field on passing downs. Both are RB3s who likely need a touchdown to pay off in your starting lineup.

  Broncos | Mims returns to practice as limited participant; Dobbins, Harvey also limited    Wed Sep 23, 05:30 PM

Broncos.com's Aric DiLalla reports that Denver WR Marvin Mims Jr. (foot) returned to practice on Wednesday as a limited participant after missing practice entirely last week and sitting out the Week 2 win over the Jaguars. RB J.K. Dobbins (hip) and RB RJ Harvey (hamstring) were also listed as limited participants on Wednesday, with Harvey having been ruled out in Week 2 after being questionable. RB Jonah Coleman (ankle) was the only Broncos player who did not practice at all. Denver hosts the Rams on Sunday Night Football, with a full injury report set to be released Thursday and game statuses on Friday.

Footballguys view: Watch the Dobbins/Harvey situation here. Dobbins missed time against the Jaguars, but his hamstring/cramps/hip (whatever they're going to call it) injury was seen as minor, and we're expecting him on Sunday night against the Rams. Harvey missed Week 2, but he could return to provide the team with explosive plays as a runner (but primarily a receiver out of the backfield).

  Jonah Coleman dealing with sprained ankle    Wed Sep 23, 04:46 PM

Broncos RB Jonah Coleman is dealing with a sprained ankle he suffered in the Broncos' Week 2 win over the Jaguars, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported.

Footballguys view: It's a gut punch for Fantasy GMs who were thrilled to get Coleman off the waiver wire this week. J.K. Dobbins (hamstring/cramps) missed time against the Jaguars on Sunday, and Coleman came through in the 4-minute offense to seal the win with a touchdown for the Broncos late. Dobbins should be back this week for a Sunday night game against the Rams. Coleman's availability is unknown at this time.

  Broncos | Jonah Coleman's role likely to grow    Tue Sep 22, 04:02 PM

According to The Athletic's Nick Kosmider, rookie RB Jonah Coleman figures to have a growing role in Denver's offense, even when the backfield is at full strength.

Footballguys view: With RJ Harvey inactive due to a hamstring injury and J.K. Dobbins sidelined in the first half of Sunday's win over the Jaguars, Coleman finished the day with 58 total yards and a touchdown on 13 touches. He had 33 rushing yards on six carries during Denver's final drive alone. So, especially after he showed during his first big moment in the NFL that he can deliver knockout blows with the game on the line, fantasy managers should be making proactive moves to secure his services.

  Broncos | Report: J.K. Dobbins' issue on Sunday was leg cramps    Tue Sep 22, 03:43 PM

A source tells News 9 in Denver's Mike Klis that Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins suffered leg cramps during Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Footballguys view: The issue was initially reported as a minor hamstring injury. The team will monitor Dobbins this week, but there is optimism they avoided a serious setback. That said, Jonah Coleman looked good with Dobbins and RJ Harvey, who was inactive due to a hamstring injury of his own, sidelined Sunday.

  Broncos | Waddle erupts for 138 yards in home debut, 'only the tip of the iceberg'    Mon Sep 21, 12:15 AM

Broncos.com reports that Denver WR Jaylen Waddle caught eight of 10 targets for 138 yards, including a 49-yard catch, in the team's win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

Footballguys view: Head Coach Sean Payton called Waddle's impact "significant," noting "you can see the explosiveness, the run after the catch, all of those things. I'm glad he's ours." Waddle was awarded a game ball following the win. Waddle was WR9 overall through Sunday's late afternoon games.

  Broncos | J.K. Dobbins sidelined by a hamstring injury    Sun Sep 20, 09:00 PM

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins suffered an apparent left hamstring injury during Sunday's game. It occurred near the end of the third quarter with the Broncos trailing 13-6. Dobbins had 10 carries for 36 yards before leaving the game. Zac Stevens of DNVR Broncos on X said that head coach Sean Payton believed the injury to be "little."

Footballguys view: With RJ Harvey already inactive due to a hamstring injury of his own, the Broncos relied on rookie Jonah Coleman to carry the load. Coleman had 10 carries for 39 yards and a touchdown. We'll be watching for more on Dobbins and Harvey as we head into Week 3.

  Broncos | Bo Nix, Broncos offense struggle in Kansas City    Tue Sep 15, 02:42 AM

Broncos quarterback Bo Nix needed just three words to sum up the laundry list of woes in the team's 31-10 season-opening loss to the Kansas City Chiefs Monday night in Arrowhead Stadium. Nix said it was "pretty pitiful, actually."

Footballguys view: In first-year offensive coordinator Davis Webb's regular-season debut as play-caller, the Broncos struggled. In their first three plays from scrimmage, Nix was sacked to open the drive and threw his first interception of the season on the third play to end the possession. He fumbled three times (losing one) to go with his first-quarter interception and was sacked four times -- tied for the most in any game of his career. The Broncos offense gained just 176 net yards and didn't have a play longer than 20 yards. Denver will look to rebound against a tough Jaguars defense in Week 2.

  Broncos | WR Bryant a larger-than-expected role?    Thu Sep 10, 04:31 PM

Dan Graziano, from ESPN, believes Denver Broncos WR Pat Bryant "might force his way into a bigger role than expected."

Footballguys view: Bryant was an emerging player for the Broncos as a rookie in 2025. A couple of concussions did prevent him from doing more, but he's healthy and ready to impress even more in his second season. Bryant is the future replacement for Courtland Sutton as Sean Payton's "X" receiver. However, he could play some big slot as well and will get on the field to collect targets behind Sutton, Jaylen Waddle, and RJ Harvey.

  Broncos | Justin Joly does not make team    Sun Aug 30, 03:54 PM

Denver Broncos TE Justin Joly was waived Sunday, Aug. 30, according to sources.

Footballguys view: Joly had a 88 yard touchdown in the last preseason game, but he had trouble adjusting to the NFL in camp and wasn't ready for a game day role. He didn't show enough for the team to feel like they couldn't expose him to waivers, but if he clears - which is possible with so many other players on the fringe available - then the Broncos should add him to the practice squad.

Updating a previous report, Denver Broncos WR Marvin Mims (foot) sustained a bruised foot during the first quarter of the preseason game versus the Minnesota Vikings Friday, Aug. 28, according to head coach Sean Payton. He was taken to the locker room for evaluation and did not return to action.

Footballguys view: Mims is an explosive playmaker at the wide receiver position, and he's an All-Pro return man for the Broncos. He doesn't get much work on offense, even though Mims seems to make plays anytime the team relies on him. Mims is behind Jaylen Waddle, Courtland Sutton, and Pat Bryant on the depth chart. He's competing with Troy Franklin to round out the position behind the top three.

Footballguys view: Good news for the Broncos here. Until we get more reports about this injury, it seems like Moss could be out there against the Chiefs in Week 1. In a contract year in 2026, Moss is set to get a big payday if he plays like he did in the last half of the 2025 season.
