After a four-game slide where it appeared that Troy Franklin had lost his status as Denver's No. 2 WR, a hamstring injury suffered by Pat Bryant opened the door for Franklin to reassert himself as an integral part of Denver's passing attack. And he took advantage of the opportunity. Franklin caught all 6 of his targets for 85 yards and 1 TD in Denver's 34-26 win over the Green Bay Packers.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims left Sunday's game vs. the Packers with a stinger. He was also evaluated for a concussion but was cleared, according to the CBS broadcast. We'll update Mims' status when we know more. Denver is already without WR Pat Bryant (hamstring) today.

Update: Mims returned for the second half.

Broncos WR Pat Bryant (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. He didn’t practice all week, so this could turn into a multi-week absence. WRs Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims should see more playing time with Bryant sidelined. See where those guys land in the Week 15 WR rankings.

Broncos WR Pat Bryant (hamstring) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. Insider Ben Allbright does not expect Bryant to play vs. the Packers this weekend. The rookie has emerged as Denver's No. 2 WR, but his absence would boost Troy Franklin back into that role and Marvin Mims into the No. 3 spot on the depth chart.

The past two weeks have seen Broncos WR Troy Franklin go from challenging Courtland Sutton's lead-target status to barely involved in the passing game. He followed a Week 13 dip in usage by running a season-low 17 routes in Sunday's win over the Raiders. That marked just a 39.5% rate vs. Denver's 43 dropbacks. Franklin still ranked third among Broncos WRs in that category but trailed well behind No. 2 Pat Bryant (67.4%) and narrowly led No. 4 Marvin Mims Jr. (34.9%). Franklin ranked fifth among Denver wideouts in total snaps, trailing -- in order -- Sutton, Bryant, Lil'Jordan Humphrey, and Mims.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims (concussion) was a full-go in practice all week and is off the final injury report. He’ll be back for Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs and figures to split No. 3 WR duties with Pat Bryant. Neither is a viable fantasy play.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims (concussion) is out for Thursday night's game vs. the Raiders. He got in limited practices on Tuesday and Wednesday but wasn't able to clear protocol. Rookie Pat Bryant will operate as Denver's No. 3 WR for the second straight game but is only in play in single-game daily contests.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Texans. Pat Bryant should see a boost in snaps as Denver’s No. 3 WR, but the rookie isn’t a recommended fantasy starter against a tough secondary.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims sustained a concussion in Sunday’s win over the Cowboys, according to The Denver Post’s Troy Renck. It’s Mims' first documented concussion but leaves him iffy for Week 9. He’s been operating as Denver’s No. 3 WR, averaging 4.0 targets per game. Mims’ absence would likely mean a boost in snaps for rookie WR Pat Bryant.

Broncos QB Bo Nix went off for 279 passing yards and 4 total scores in Sunday’s stunning comeback win over the Giants. Nix recorded 170 passing yards and all four TDs in the fourth quarter alone, supporting the QB1 fantasy finish for Week 7.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims (hip) is questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Bengals. He was added to the injury report on Friday and limited in practice. Mims should not be in Week 4 fantasy lineups. His absence would free up extra routes for WRs Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant, and Trent Sherfield.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims (thigh) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. He ended up missing just one practice with this injury, and it shouldn't be a factor in Sunday's opener vs. the Titans. Mims was a full-time player with the first-team offense this preseason, turning him into one of the more intriguing sleepers in fantasy football. He'd be a shaky Week 1 fantasy start, but Mims is worth a roster spot in all leagues of 12+ teams.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims returned to the practice field Monday. That means Mims missed only one day of practice (Friday) after leaving with a groin injury last week. The return seems to put Mims on track to play in Sunday's season opener against the Titans.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims missed practice on Thursday with a groin injury. HC Sean Payton expressed no concern and expects Mims to return to practice on Monday.

Broncos’ WR Marvin Mims Jr. left Wednesday’s practice early with a groin injury. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the team isn’t “overly concerned.”

WR Devaughn Vele has been traded to the New Orleans Saints, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Broncos WR Marvin Mims started opposite WR Courtland Sutton in Saturday’s preseason contest against the San Francisco 49ers.
