Marvin Mims Jr. Does Work on Side Field

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.

Tory Horton Doesn't Practice Monday, Dealing with a "Few Things"

Monday, August 17, 5:12 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton (undisclosed) did not participate in practice on Monday, according to Corbin Smith of Emerald City Spectrum. Head coach Mike Macdonald didn't provide any specifics on his injury, other than saying that Horton is "dealing with a few things." The 23-year-old had 13 catches across eight games as a rookie last year, and he found the end zone at an absurd rate, scoring five touchdowns. As it stands, he enters the 2026 season as the Seahawks' No. 3 receiver behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp, and Rashid Shaheed. He could end up getting on the fantasy radar if he puts together a strong start to the regular season, but that would first require him to recover from his current injury situation. He now ranks as RotoBaller's WR103 in redraft leagues and WR81 in dynasty leagues.
