Broncos Re-Sign Lil'Jordan Humphrey

Thursday, March 12, 9:26 AM

The Denver Broncos are re-signing wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey to an undisclosed deal on Thursday, a source told Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. Humphrey played three games with the New York Giants at the beginning of last year before the Broncos picked him up. Head coach Sean Payton is familiar with the 27-year-old wideout after he played the first three years of his career with the New Orleans Saints from 2019 through 2021. In his seven regular-season games with the Broncos in 2025, Humphrey caught nine of his 15 targets for 101 yards and one touchdown. He also played in Denver in 2023 and 2024, catching 44 of his 64 targets for 455 yards and four touchdowns in 34 games (15 starts). He will return to Denver to provide them with depth at the position, but he won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar behind Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant, and Marvin Mims Jr.

Jaylin Lane Struggling to Find Role in New-Look Receiver Room

Friday, September 11, 6:59 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jaylin Lane may struggle to carve out a substantial role in the team's new-look receiver room. The Commanders signed Stefon Diggs and drafted Antonio Williams this past offseason, slotting them into the second and third receiver roles behind Terry McLaurin. That leaves a combo of Lane, Dyami Brown, and Treylon Burks competing for the No. 4 spot on the depth chart. Lane might benefit from being the youngest of that group, but that also means he has the least experience and the least impactful track record. As a rookie last year, the Virginia Tech product caught just 16 of his 32 targets for 225 yards. We'd expect Lane to remain on special teams, with his occasional offensive snaps not providing enough stability for any sort of fantasy relevance. He can be left on waivers in all redraft leagues.
