Marvin Mims Jr. News
Monday, August 17, 4:32 PM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (undisclosed) stretched and participated in drills today before doing work on the side field, according to Zac Stevens of DNVR Broncos. We don't know any more specifics about Mims' injury, but it kept him out of the preseason opener and has impacted his ability to practice. At this point, it's too early to tell whether he'll be available for Week 1 of the regular season. Mims projects as the Broncos' primary returner on special teams this year, but he faces a difficult path to production on offense in his role behind Courtland Sutton, Jaylen Waddle, Troy Franklin, and Pat Bryant. He ranks as the WR107 in RotoBaller's latest redraft rankings and should go undrafted in most fantasy leagues this year.

Omar Cooper Jr. News
Saturday, August 22, 5:37 AM
New York Jets rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. got some run with the team's first-team offense during Friday's preseason win over the Steelers, but he stayed in the game well beyond most of the starters, who were pulled after a 10-play, 69-yard touchdown drive to open the night, and he didn't crack the stat sheet until the final series of the second quarter. Cooper ended his night with a single catch for nine yards, with the game serving as a continuation of what has been a quiet training camp. A first-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the rookie has yet to secure anything close to a locked-in starting role, still competing with Isaiah Williams, who led the team with five targets on Friday, for the primary slot role in three-receiver sets. One of the least hyped first-rounders in recent memory, Cooper is being drafted as the WR65 in 2026 lineup leagues.
