Who Should I Start? Phillip Dorsett or Tre'Quan Smith

Saturday, December 30, 9:34 PM

Denver Broncos wide receivers Phillip Dorsett and Michael Bandy have been added to the active roster ahead of the Week 17 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Normally, this won't be noteworthy, but it is due to the current state of the Broncos' wideouts. Right now, Denver will be without Courtland Sutton (concussion) while Jerry Jeudy (illness) and Marvin Mims Jr. (hamstring) are questionable for this game. The fact that the Broncos added two receivers to the roster means that the team is preparing to be without both Jeudy and Mims on Sunday. Regardless, it's tough to imagine any of the Broncos receivers having fantasy value with quarterback Russell Wilson on the bench.

The Denver Broncos signed free-agent wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (groin) to their practice squad on Tuesday and waived cornerback Essang Bassey and released wide receiver Michael Bandy from the practice squad in corresponding moves. Smith began the season on Injured Reserve with the New Orleans Saints due to a groin injury he suffered in training camp, but he's apparently healthy now and will have another opportunity in Denver as he reunites with his former head coach Sean Payton. The 27-year-old remains well off the fantasy radar for now. In his five seasons with the Saints since 2018, Smith has put up 131 receptions (196 targets) for 1,764 yards and 18 touchdowns in 66 games (35 starts). He had just 19 catches for 278 yards and one score in 15 games (six starts) in 2022.
