Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. entered concussion protocol following Sunday's Week 8 contest against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Troy Renck of the Denver Post. The team never announced an injury status for Mims mid-game, so it's unclear exactly when he suffered the injury. It may have occurred with 4:39 left in the fourth quarter when Mims returned a kick 26 yards. He finished the game with two punt returns and three kick returns. On offense, he was unable to haul in his lone target. The 23-year-old faces an uphill battle to clear concussion protocol in the seven days between now and Denver's Week 9 contest against the Houston Texans. Perhaps Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders is a more reasonable date to target for Mims' return to action. Pat Bryant will likely step up as the Broncos' No. 3 receiver behind Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) has officially been ruled out for the Week 8 contest against the hosting Houston Texans on Sunday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Pearsall, who has not practiced at all since suffering a PCL sprain in his knee in Week 4, will miss a fourth straight game this weekend. The fact that the 25-year-old has yet to practice suggests that he could be trending towards missing a fifth straight contest next week when the team takes on the New York Giants on the road. When healthy, the former first-rounder will be a big part of the Niners' offense, but the problem is he's proven to be quite injury-prone early in his NFL career. Jauan Jennings and Kendrick Bourne will continue to operate as the team's top two receivers, but running back Christian McCaffrey has been backup quarterback Mac Jones' top target with QB Brock Purdy (toe) sidelined.
