Broncos' Marvin Mims: Records 61 all-purpose yards in win
Rotowire
Mims brought in two of five targets for 10 yards, rushed once for nine yards and returned four punts for 42 yards in the Broncos' 21-17 win over the Eagles on Sunday.
Mims' final line tells the story of modest involvement on offense for the fourth time in five games, as well as a continuation of his solid work as a returner. The speedy third-year wideout didn't log any kickoff-return work for the second straight game, but he's now averaging 13.0 yards on his 13 punt returns. Nevertheless, with a modest 14-119-1 line on 21 targets as a receiver, Mims retains only modest value in formats that don't factor in return yards.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Listed as limited again
Rotowire
Mims (hip/ankle) was limited at Thursday's practice.
Mims also was deemed limited on Wednesday's practice estimate, so he'll have one more chance to practice fully ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles. He's coming off his most productive game of the season, having recorded six catches on as many targets for 69 yards and one carry for a 16-yard TD in Monday's 28-3 win over the Bengals.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Limited on practice estimate
Rotowire
Mims (hip/ankle) was listed as limited on Wednesday's practice estimate.
Mims was a Saturday addition to the Broncos' Week 4 injury report with a hip injury, but he suited up for Monday night's 28-3 win over the Bengals and wound up with six catches on as many targets for 69 yards and one carry for a 16-yard TD. The wideout is now also managing an ankle issue and will have two more chances to practice fully leading up to Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Week 5 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
It was the Bengals, so take that into account, but Mims had his best game of the season in Week 4 with six catches for 69 yards on six targets, and he added a 16-yard rushing touchdown on his lone carry. Coming into the game Monday night, Mims only had six catches for 40 yards in the first three games of the year, but hopefully this is the jumpstart to his season. It's worth adding him to find out for at least 1 percent of your remaining FAB.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Active versus Bengals
Rotowire
Mims (hip) is listed as active for Monday night's game against the Bengals, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Mims, who didn't appear on the Broncos' Week 4 injury report Thursday or Friday, was deemed questionable for the contest after being listed as limited in Saturday's practice. With his availability versus Cincinnati confirmed, Mims -- who's been a key returner for Denver -- will bolster a wide receiver corps that's been paced of late by Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin. Through his team's first three games, the 2023 second-rounder's fantasy impact has been modest, with Mims having logged six catches (on 10 targets) for 40 yards and a TD in that span.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Questionable for MNF
Rotowire
Mims is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Bengals due to a hip injury.
The injury appears to be a recent one, given Mims practiced in full Thursday and Friday. He was limited in Saturday's session, and his status for Monday night's game may not be known until the Broncos announce their inactives list approximately 90 minutes before the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. Mims has six catches (on 10 targets) for 40 yards and a touchdown through three games, though most of his impact has come on special teams, where he has logged 248 kickoff return yards and 103 punt return yards. Riley Moss, Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie would be candidates to take over return duties on special teams if Mims is not cleared to play.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: One grab in loss
Rotowire
Mims caught one of four targets for four yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chargers.
Mims continued his disappointing start to the 2025 campaign, as the third-year wide receiver has recorded just six catches for 40 yards and a touchdown through three games. The 23-year-old operated as Denver's No. 3 wideout behind both Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin. Quarterback Bo Nix and Mims had trouble connecting in the contest, as Nix struggled with accuracy while pushing the ball down the field. The Oklahoma product hasn't had the role in the Broncos' offense that fantasy managers hoped for thus far, making him extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. Mims will look to get more involved in Denver's aerial attack when the Broncos host the Bengals and their vulnerable defense in Week 4.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Finds end zone in loss
Rotowire
Mims reeled in both of his targets for 24 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-28 loss to the Colts.
Mims scored his first touchdown on the season despite seeing a significant dip in his playing time in Week 2. After playing 51 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps in Week 1, the 23-year-old was on the field for just 36 percent of snaps against the Colts. Meanwhile, teammate Troy Franklin saw an uptick in playing time and led all Denver pass catchers with nine targets. If this type of usage continues, Mims will be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as the third option among wide receivers behind both Franklin and Courtland Sutton. Nonetheless, the third-year wideout will look to build off this performance in Week 3 when the Broncos visit the Chargers.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
Mims is off the injury report after dealing with a thigh injury, and hopefully, he can pick up where last season ended. He scored at least 19.9 PPR points in three of his final five games of the regular season, including five touchdowns over that span, and he had three games during that stretch with at least five targets. Courtland Sutton is locked into the No. 1 receiver role for the Broncos, but Mims should be No. 2, for now, ahead of Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant. And based on his role in the preseason, Mims could be headed for a breakout campaign, starting this week. I like him as a boom-or-bust No. 3 Fantasy receiver in deeper leagues.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Ready for Week 1
Rotowire
Mims (thigh) practiced fully Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Mims exited practice last week with a thigh injury and didn't participate in this past Thursday's session but was able to return to the field Monday. With a full showing under his belt Wednesday, Mims is slated to play in Sunday's regular-season opener against the Titans, a contest in which the 2023 second-rounder is expected to work as the Broncos' WR2 behind top option Courtland Sutton.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Back at practice, as expected
Rotowire
Mims (groin) is participating in Monday's practice, Luca Evans of The Denver Post reports.
Broncos coach Sean Payton said after Mims was forced to depart last Wednesday's practice early that he was expected to retake the field Monday, so it's encouraging to see the 2023 second-rounder following that timetable without any setbacks. By all indications, Mims is only dealing with a minor groin injury and remains on track for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Titans.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Absent from practice Thursday
Rotowire
Mims (groin) is not present at Thursday's practice, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Mims left Wednesday's practice early to be evaluated for a groin issue, though Broncos coach Sean Payton downplayed the injury's severity. The team appears to simply be taking a cautious approach to the No. 2 receiver's recovery until next week, when prep for the regular-season opener against Tennessee on Sunday, Sept. 7 fully kicks off, as Payton said Mims will be back on the field Monday, per Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Evaluated for groin injury
Rotowire
Mims (groin) departed Wednesday's practice early but is not believed to be dealing with a serious injury, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Mims is set to kick off the regular season as Denver's No. 2 starting wideout alongside Courtland Sutton, and he appears to be facing the most significant opportunity for playing time of his three-year career, so Denver will hope the 2023 second-round pick is able to get back on the field quickly. Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant would stand to benefit from a sharp uptick in snaps behind Sutton if Mims were to miss any time.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: WR2 candidate for Broncos
Rotowire
As training camp approaches, Mims is a candidate to emerge as the Broncos' No. 2 wide receiver option behind Courtland Sutton, Parker Gabriel of the Denver Post reports.
Mims, who Denver selected in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, is coming off a 2024 regular season in which he totaled 39 catches for 503 yards (on 52 targets) and six TDs in 17 games, but it's worth noting that the 23-year-old speedster logged a 32/447/6 receiving line over his last eight contests. Also competing for wideout targets ahead of Week 1 will be Devaughn Vele, Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant, but Mims' encouraging finish last year could foreshadow an uptick in production in his third season as a pro while working with second-year franchise QB Bo Nix.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Quiet in playoff debut
Rotowire
Mims caught two of four targets for 12 yards and gained an additional rushing yard on two carries in Sunday's 31-7 wild-card round loss to the Bills.
After finishing the regular season with four TDs over the last two games, Mims wasn't able to get free against a stingy Buffalo secondary. The 2023 second-round pick was looking like he might be little more than a return specialist in the NFL until he caught fire down the stretch this year, posting a 28-434-6 line on 33 targets over his final seven regular-season contests and flashing some intriguing chemistry with quarterback Bo Nix. Mims will likely land on a lot of sleeper lists heading into 2025 fantasy drafts.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Finds end zone twice
Rotowire
Mims recorded five receptions on five targets for 51 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-0 win over the Chiefs.
Mims continued his late-season breakout, and his day began with an impressive 32-yard catch and run into the end zone. He then tallied a seven-yard touchdown reception late in the third quarter, once again earning the majority of his yardage after the catch. While Mims doesn't necessarily win consistently as a traditional receiver, he's carved out a consistent role in the Denver offense having commanded at least four targets in six straight games to close the regular season.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Week 18 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Mims blew up in Week 17 at Cincinnati with eight catches for 103 yards and two touchdowns on eight targets, and I hope the Broncos realize what they have with their second-year receiver heading into Week 18 against Kansas City -- and beyond. Mims can be a viable weapon for Bo Nix, and hopefully, that shows up again in Week 18 when the Chiefs are resting starters on defense. I would take a chance on Mims as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in deeper leagues.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Two impressive touchdowns
Rotowire
Mims recorded eight receptions on eight targets for 103 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Bengals.
Mims saw a career-high eight targets and turned in the third 100-yard performance in two years as a pro. He had a pair of highlight-reel touchdown receptions, the first coming on a 51-yard deep shot midway through the fourth quarter when he got behind a pair of defenders. Mims followed that up with a leaping 25-yard touchdown grab with eight seconds remaining in the fourth quarter to send the game to overtime. After failing to top 18 yards in a game through Week 10, Mims has at least 62 receiving yards in three of his last four games and is making the case to have a key role in Denver's offense in 2025.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Four grabs in win
Rotowire
Mims secured all four of his targets for 20 yards and rushed once for zero yards in Sunday's 31-13 win over the Colts.
Mims played just 16 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, the least of any Denver wideout in the contest. After trending upwards in production in recent weeks, the 22-year-old wasn't able to get much going with his four targets from quarterback Bo Nix. Mims does not receive enough consistent playing time and opportunities to be trusted for fantasy purposes as the season's conclusion draws near. The second-year receiver will look to bounce back in a Week 16 matchup against the Chargers.

Broncos' Marvin Mims: Scores from 93 yards out
Rotowire
Mims had three catches (on four targets) for 105 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 41-32 win over the Browns.
Mims was the leading receiver for Denver after breaking off a 93-yard touchdown reception in an exciting win on Monday Night Football. The 22-year-old gained only 12 yards on his remaining two receptions, reminding fantasy managers how little the wideout can be involved in this offense. Mims has been a reserve for Denver in his sophomore season, resulting in a previous game high of 49 yards in 12 games prior to Monday's output. With a bye week on tap, Mims shouldn't be a top waiver add Week 14.
