Limited Thursday
Thu, Nov 5, 2026, 5:01 PM
Hufanga (ankle) was limited in Thursday's practice, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Analysis: After being listed as DNP on Wednesday, Hufanga's return to practice will give him a chance to play Sunday against the Panthers after he's missed the past three contests. |

DNP on Wednesday
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 7:52 PM
Abrams-Draine (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.
Analysis: The cornerback exited Sunday's win over the Chiefs with the injury and was unable to return. With Denver's cornerbacks now healthy, Abrams-Draine was relegated to a pure special-teams role in Week 8. |
Pat Bryant Pat Bryant Full practice Wednesday
Wed, Nov 4, 2026, 6:17 PM
Bryant (ankle) was a full participant at the Broncos' practice Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.
Analysis: Bryant was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, and he was instantly able to give it a full go. With Denver's bye week coming in Week 10, it's unclear if the team will decide to activate the wide receiver before Sunday's matchup with the Panthers or potentially wait to bring him back Nov. 22 against the Raiders. Regardless of whatever decision the team makes, Bryant appears to be fully recovered from the ankle injury that has sidelined him since Week 4. |

Analysis: Help is on the way for the Broncos' passing game, as Bryant is making progress toward a return. His 21-day practice window is now open, though his status for Week 9 against the Panthers is still undetermined. |

Posts another huge tackle tally Week 8
Tue, Nov 3, 2026, 10:58 PM
Singleton notched 14 tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, and defensed a pass in Sunday's 28-24 victory against the Chiefs.
Analysis: Singleton continued to rack up a vast number of stops -- it was the fifth time this season he's recorded double-digit tackles. The star linebacker also registered a sack for the second straight week, coming up huge when he brought down Patrick Mahomes for a six-yard loss late in the fourth quarter on third down. The next play was a missed Harrison Butker 54-yard field-goal try, which led to Denver pulling off the comeback with a touchdown less than a minute later. Singleton has been an elite IDP asset in fantasy this season, as he leads the NFL by a wide margin with 101 tackles through eight weeks. |
Evan Engram Evan Engram No grabs in Week 8 win
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 9:39 PM
Engram failed to catch any of his three targets in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Chiefs.
Analysis: Bo Nix targeted 10 different pass catchers on 32 total pass attempts, and it was rookie RB Jonah Coleman who led the team in receiving with a 4-63-0 line on five targets. Engram has just three catches for 15 yards over his last three games and isn't a recommended fantasy bet ahead of Sunday's date with the Panthers. |
Wil Lutz Wil Lutz Makes all four kicks in Week 8 win
Mon, Nov 2, 2026, 8:01 PM
Lutz made both field-goal attempts and both PATs in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Chiefs.
Analysis: Lutz's field-goal tries were good from 39 and 45 yards in the first half. Kicking in Denver's anemic offense through eight games, the veteran has made just 14 of 17 FGAs and all 14 PATs. He's not an exciting fantasy kicker despite playing his home games in the most kicker-friendly environment. |
Nate Adkins Nate Adkins Catches late TD in comeback win
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 11:15 PM
Adkins caught both of his targets for four yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Chiefs.
Analysis: The block-first tight end secured a two-yard score in the fourth quarter to pull the Broncos within three points, before they scored the eventual game-winning touchdown on the next possession. Adkins now has six grabs for 44 yards and a score on seven targets this season. He has no fantasy appeal. |
Courtland Sutton Courtland Sutton Four catches in Week 8 victory
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 9:24 PM
Sutton caught all four of his targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City.
Analysis: For the fourth straight game, Sutton failed to see more than five targets, but his four grabs and 53 yards were both season highs. It's been a rough campaign so far for the 31-year-old receiver in an inconsistent Broncos aerial attack, and Sutton will take a 20-221-1 line on 37 targets through eight games intro a Week 9 clash with the Panthers. |
Jaylen Waddle Jaylen Waddle Makes key grabs in Week 8 win
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 9:20 PM
Waddle caught three of six targets for 39 yards and a touchdown and added a two-point conversion in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City.
Analysis: Despite the fact that the wideout is playing through a chest injury, Waddle came up big when it counted, connecting with Bo Nix on a one-yard TD in the second quarter before snagging a two-point conversion in the fourth as Denver mounted a comeback from a 24-13 deficit. Waddle's 29-315-2 line on 51 targets through his first eight games as a Bronco is disappointing, but he still has time to pick up the pace beginning with a Week 9 tilt against the Panthers. |
J.K. Dobbins J.K. Dobbins Surpassed by rookie in win over KC
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 9:16 PM
Dobbins carried the ball seven times for 13 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City.
Analysis: While the veteran RB got the start, by the end of the game Dobbins had fully given way to rookie Jonah Coleman, who wound up delivering 104 scrimmage yards on 15 touches and scored the game-winning touchdown. With RJ Harvey (knee) on IR, Dobbins will still have a role in the Denver backfield, but Coleman made a compelling case Sunday to become the team's new No. 1 back. Dobbins should at least be more productive in Week 9, even on limited volume, against a Panthers defense that's among the worst in the league against the run. |
Jonah Coleman Jonah Coleman Makes strong case for top job
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 9:11 PM
Coleman carried the ball 11 times for 41 yards and a touchdown and caught four of five targets for 63 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City.
Analysis: With RJ Harvey (knee) on the shelf, Coleman saw a season-high 15 touches compared to J.K. Dobbins' seven, and the rookie was instrumental in the Broncos' fourth-quarter comeback. After a Harrison Butker missed field goal gave Denver great field position, Coleman was a one-man show on a two-play drive, taking a short pass from Bo Nix and turning it into a 51-yard gain, before punching in a five-yard TD on the other side of the two-minute warning. Dobbins will still mix in on early downs, but Coleman may have just seized control of the backfield for the Broncos. He'll look to solidify his spot in Week 9 against a Panthers defense that's among the worst in the league against the run. |
Bo Nix Bo Nix Engineers another fourth-quarter comeback
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 8:58 PM
Nix completed 20 of 32 passes for 222 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City. He added four rushing yards on three carries and threw a two-point conversion to Jaylen Waddle.
Analysis: The Broncos were staring at a 24-13 deficit heading into the fourth quarter, but late comebacks are nothing new for Nix. The QB hit Nate Adkins for a two-yard score with about nine minutes left before connecting with Jonah Coleman on a 51-yard catch and run to set up the game-winning TD plunge by the rookie RB just after the two-minute warning. It's the 15th time that Nix has led Denver on a game-winning drive in the fourth quarter or overtime, the most by any quarterback in the first three seasons of his career since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970. While he's thrown multiple TDs just twice in the first eight games of the season, Nix has gone five straight contests without tossing an INT. He'll take a 9:3 TD:INT into a Week 9 road tilt against the Panthers. |

Ruled out for rest of Sunday
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 5:34 PM
Jones (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's contest against the Chiefs, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Analysis: Jones entered Sunday's matchup with a questionable tag after suffering a hamstring injury at practice during the week. Although the safety was ultimately able to play, it's possible that he tweaked the injury during the game, and he will now have to shift his sights to Week 9. In his absence, Taylor Rapp and Devon Key will operate as Denver's two primary safeties against Kansas City. |
|
Questionable to return Sunday
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 4:59 PM
Abrams-Draine (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest versus the Chiefs, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Analysis: Abrams-Draine picked up an ankle injury late in the first half, and his status for the rest of the game is now uncertain. In his absence, Jahdae Barron will operate as Denver's top reserve option behind Pat Surtain and Riley Moss at cornerback against Kansas City. |
|
Courtland Sutton Courtland Sutton Back in Sunday's game
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 4:58 PM
Sutton (undisclosed) briefly left Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Analysis: Sutton went to the medical tent after taking a hard hit, but the wideout was able to return to action not long after he did so. In the process he'll bolster a Denver Week 9 WR corps that also includes Jaylen Waddle, Troy Franklin, Marvin Mims and Lil'Jordan Humphrey. |
|
Good to go for Week 8
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 2:27 PM
Allen (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Allen injured his hamstring in Week 7 against the Cardinals, but he's been given the green light to play Sunday after having his reps limited during Week 8 prep. He has 24 tackles (10 solo), including 4.5 sacks, two pass defenses and one forced fumble through seven regular-season games. |
|
Cleared vs. Kansas City
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 2:24 PM
Jones (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Jones popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a hamstring issue, but he's been cleared by medical staff to play Sunday. He has 52 tackles (31 solo), five pass defenses (including two interceptions) and one fumble recovery across seven regular-season games. |
Sam Ehlinger Sam Ehlinger Emergency QB3 vs. Kansas City
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 2:22 PM
Ehlinger (coach's decision) is inactive but will be the third emergency quarterback against the Chiefs on Sunday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: As the emergency QB3, Ehlinger is not allowed to play Sunday unless both Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection. |
|
Jaylen Waddle Jaylen Waddle Is active for Sunday's game
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 1:58 PM
Waddle (chest) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Waddle attempted to play through a chest injury in Week 7, but he exited in the fourth quarter and didn't return. He then didn't practice to open Week 8 prep before back-to-back limited sessions Thursday and Friday left him listed as questionable. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Sunday morning that Waddle is trending well to play, which now has been confirmed. Since joining the Broncos via trade in the offseason, Waddle has had one vintage performance (8-138-0 on 10 targets versus Jacksonville in Week 2), but he otherwise has combined for an 18-138-1 line on 35 targets in his six other appearances in 2026. |
