Kaleb Eleby - Throws TD vs. Michigan Eleby completed 20 of 37 passes for 191 yards and a touchdown, along with 16 rushing yards, Saturday against Michigan.
Impact All things considered, and as praised by ESPN's Dan Orlovsky late in the game broadcast, Eleby looked pretty good in a one-sided game against a tough opponent. Things will be far easier going forward, starting next week against Illinois State.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Corey Crooms - Scores TD vs. Michigan Crooms had four catches for a team-high 58 yards with a touchdown on Saturday against Michigan.
Impact Crooms scored when the game well decided in favor of Michigan, but with nice work after the catch when Kaleb Eleby found him. He's a bit down the depth chart for the Broncos, but if Skyy Moore (undisclosed) misses time there should be extra opportunities.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Jaylen Hall - Catches three passes vs. Michigan Hall had three receptions for 46 yards against Michigan on Saturday.
Impact A disappointing start to 2021 for Hall, albeit against a tough opponent. Next week will bring a solid rebound opportunity against Illinois State.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Bryce Nunnelly - Leads team in catches vs. Michigan Nunnelly had 52 yards on a team-high seven receptions against Michigan on Saturday.
Impact An early injury for Skyy Moore opened up an opportunity for Nunnelly, and he appeared to have some rapport with Kaleb Eleby. He's worth watching as a fantasy option, especially in PPR leagues.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Sean Tyler - Leads team in rushing vs. Michigan Tyler had 10 carries for a team-high 55 yards, with a long run of 22 yards, along with 13 yards on two catches, against Michigan on Saturday.
Impact Tyler had a solid outing considering the matchup against the Wolverines. He's lined up for a big game next week against Illinois State.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
La'Darius Jefferson - Scores TD vs. Michigan Jefferson had 10 carries for 38 yards and a touchdown against Michigan on Saturday.
Impact The Broncos didn't get a lot going offensively, but Jefferson shared the team carry lead and found paydirt. A far easier matchup is coming next week against Illinois State.

Skyy Moore - Done for first half Moore will miss the remainder of the first half due to injury, Chris Vannini of The Athletic reports.
Impact Moore missing time would be a huge blow for the Broncos, given his position as the team's clear No. 1 receiver. More information on his status for the remainder of the contest will likely surface after halftime.

Brett Borske - Doubtful for season opener Coach Tim Lester said Borske (knee) is doubtful for Saturday's game against Michigan, according to the Western Herald.
Impact Borske suffered a knee injury during fall camp, which cast his status for the start of the season into doubt. In his place, for however long he's out, Anthony Torres will become the Broncos' No. 1 tight end.

Brett Borske - Hopeful to play in season opener Borske (undisclosed ) started running on Friday and coach Tim Lester hopes to have him for the Sept. 4 season opener against Michigan, according to Collin Murphy of the Western Her...
Impact Borske played three games last year, with four catches for 29 yards. He is the Broncos' No. 1 tight end if he's healthy, but he's a long way from the fantasy radar.
AUGUST 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
DaShon Bussell - Moves to defense Bussell has moved to the defensive side of the ball, Collin Murphy of the Western Herald reports.
Impact Bussell saw his playing time minimized last season at wide receiver, likely prompting his decision to try his hand on the defensive side of the ball. He should still have three seasons of eligibility to try to make an impact but likely moves out of fantasy consideration for the future.
