Marvin Mims Jr. Heading into Final Season in Denver?

Wednesday, June 24, 9:10 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. acknowledged to DNVR Sports' Zac Stevens that the 2026 season could be his final year in Denver. "Sometimes I'm not in the most fortunate situations. Sometimes I am a little irritated with my situation, but at the end of the day, I'm blessed to be where I am today, standing right here where I am. I love Denver. I love the city, I love the fans, love the atmosphere, love my teammates, love my coaches. So, with this possibly being my last year, I'm just going to enjoy it to the fullest, going through it carefree and just play my hardest because we have a real chance to do something extremely special," Mims said. The 24-year-old former second-round pick (63rd overall) in 2023 out of the University of Oklahoma is entering the fourth and final year of his rookie deal in 2026, and the Broncos are projected to have just $11.7 million in salary cap space next year. Mims was a Pro Bowler on special teams in each of his first two years in the NFL, but after recording 503 receiving yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games at wideout in Year 2, he took a step back in 2025 with a 37-322-1 line in 15 regular-season games. After the addition of pass-catcher Jaylen Waddle via trade this offseason, Mims' path to fantasy relevance got even more difficult. He should go undrafted in all 12-team fantasy leagues this fall.

Theo Wease Jr. Evaluated for Concussion in Week 18

Sunday, January 4, 7:43 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Theo Wease Jr. (head) was evaluated for a concussion during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 18 loss against the New England Patriots. The game ended before the team was able to provide any additional information on his status. Wease did not return; he finished the contest with three catches for a team-high 44 receiving yards. The 24-year-old put together an impressive end to his rookie season, catching six passes for 139 yards and one touchdown over his final three games. He took on an expanded role with Tyreek Hill (knee) on injured reserve and Darren Waller (groin) and Jaylen Waddle (ribs) suffering late-season injuries. Wease should be in the mix to handle a larger workload during his second pro season next year.
