Latest news

Broncos WR Marvin Mims removed from injury report, good to go for Week 1

Tom Pelissero

Sep 05 · 7:16 PM EDT

The Broncos ruled out LB Dre Greenlaw (quad) for Sunday's opener vs. Tennessee.

WR Marvin Mims Jr. (thigh) and OLB Nik Bonitto (foot) are off the injury report and good to go.

Related Players: Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant

Fantasy Impact:

Good news for Mims, who is one of the more intriguing WR4/5 types in the league this year; he could either put up barely-relevant fantasy numbers, or build on what was a promising back-half of 2024. He can be left on benches in Week 1, but keep him on rosters where you can, as this sets up for a possible breakout season.

Broncos trade WR Devaughn Vele for future draft compensation

Adam Schefter

Aug 20 · 8:54 PM EDT

And another trade! The Denver Broncos are sending WR Devaughn Vele to the New Orleans Saints for a 2026 4th-round pick and a 2027 7th-round pick, per sources.

Fantasy Impact:

That's a lot of related players, but the biggest impact is probably on rookie Pat Bryant, who has played well enough to make Vele expendable in Denver.

The Saints will presumably employ the 6'4" Vele as a rotational threat, which makes him a little more interesting in super deep leagues for a team that is projected to be playing from behind a ton.

Broncos Beat: WR Troy Franklin poised for bigger role

Jordan Schultz on X

Aug 19 · 8:58 PM EDT

I just got back from Broncos practice. There’s buzz around several players, but one name I haven’t seen mentioned enough is second-year WR Troy Franklin. The staff loves what they’ve seen, and he looks poised for a bigger role.

Fantasy Impact:

The post went on to say Franklin's understanding of the position, overall toughness and strong hands should help make him a key target for QB Bo Nix. Schultz went on to say Denver believes it has multiple WRs ready - including Mims Jr. - to step up alongside Sutton. For what it's worth, we have Franklin a bit buried down the WR depth chart in Denver. Behind Sutton we have Mims, Vele and the rookie Bryant ahead of Franklin. But with really no clear-cut WR2 in that group, it really could be anyone's job and would certainly have some fantasy value.

Broncos sign WR Courtland Sutton to four-year, $92M extension

Adam Schefter

Jul 28 · 2:58 PM EDT

Broncos and WR Courtland Sutton have reached agreement on a four-year, $92 million extension.

Related Players: Marvin Mims, Devaughn Vele, Pat Bryant, Troy Franklin

Fantasy Impact:

Coming off a career year, Denver locks in a WR1 for Bo Nix for the immediate future. Sutton should continue to be considered a high-end WR3 for fantasy purposes, though the target share gets a little cloudy after him and tight end Evan Engram. Mims is probably the best bet to deliver in an ancillary role as ~WR5, but keep an eye on Bryant as the season progresses for a potential sneaky option.
