Marvin Mims Jr. News
Saturday, October 10, 9:41 AM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. could see more playing time Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers, but his limited involvement in the passing game remains a concern. Mims returned from a two-game absence last week and caught one of three targets for 10 yards against San Francisco. He played 27% of Denver's offensive snaps, up from 17% in the season opener, and Pat Bryant (ankle) has since landed on injured reserve. That could open additional opportunities, although Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton remain ahead of Mims, with Troy Franklin also competing for targets. The matchup offers some encouragement. Los Angeles will be without cornerback Donte Jackson (hamstring) and safety Derwin James (hamstring), while Sean Payton is taking back play-calling duties from Davis Webb. Still, Mims has not shown enough receiving involvement to warrant much fantasy consideration. RotoBaller ranks him WR86 for Week 5, leaving him on the bench in all but the deepest leagues.

Jaylin Lane News
Tuesday, October 6, 3:12 PM
The Washington Commanders officially placed second-year wide receiver Jaylin Lane (ankle) on season-ending Injured Reserve on Tuesday, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. Lane suffered a season-ending ankle injury in London's loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday and had to be carted off the field. The injury came on a kickoff return in Week 4. The 24-year-old fractured and dislocated his left ankle and will need surgery. The former fourth-rounder in 2025 from Virginia Tech caught 16 of his 32 targets for 225 yards and no touchdowns in 15 games (four starts) in D.C. in his first year in the NFL, and he had just two catches for 25 yards for the Commanders in his first four games this year before getting hurt on Sunday. Lane was not on the fantasy football radar to begin with in single-year leagues in 2026. Now that he is out for the rest of the year, receiver Dyami Brown is expected to take over the team's primary kick-return duties on special teams.
