Marvin Mims Jr. Could Be Critical to Broncos' Success

Saturday, January 24, 7:40 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. is coming off his best performance of the season, after leading the team with eight receptions for 93 yards and a touchdown in last Sunday's overtime win over the Bills. If the Broncos and backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham are to have any success moving the ball against an attacking Patriots defense, Mims may once again be tasked with carrying a heavy workload. Patriots cornerbacks Christian Gonzalez and Carlton Davis III match up well on paper against the bigger bodies of Courtland Sutton and Pat Bryant, so it could fall on the smaller, quicker Mims to provide an intermediate outlet for Stidham if New England continues to send extra bodies in the pass rush. Mims is RotoBaller's WR8 for the Conference Championship Round of playoff fantasy leagues, but he could be more valuable in Full-PPR formats.

Ricky Pearsall News

Ricky Pearsall the Unquestioned WR1 in San Francisco?

Thursday, March 5, 7:18 AM

Ricky Pearsall's early NFL career has been hampered by injuries, resulting in 17 missed games through his first two seasons. However, with major changes expected to reshape the 49ers' receiving corps heading into 2026, the cards are aligned for a healthy Pearsall to take the next step and deliver upon the flashes he showed to bookend his sophomore campaign. Jauan Jennings is set to test free agency when the new league year opens, and All-Pro tight end George Kittle faces a lengthy recovery from the torn ACL he suffered in a Wild Card win over the Eagles. San Francisco is still likely to add receiving depth through free agency or the draft, but the former first-rounder Pearsall has every opportunity to carve out a major role on a depth chart with only the soon-to-be-30-year-old Christian McCaffrey currently threatening for targets.
