Courtland Sutton - Surprisingly blanked in big win Sutton did not draw a target during the Broncos' 33-10 win over the Saints on Thursday night.
Impact The Broncos' No. 1 wideout was shockingly uninvolved in a game during which his team enjoyed a solid amount of offensive success, although Sutton did draw a target late in the first quarter that didn't end up in the box score due to the Saints' defensive holding penalty on the play. Given he'd drawn an impressive 47 targets from Bo Nix over the first six games, Thursday can safely be chalked up as an outlier for Sutton, who'll be well-positioned for a bounce-back performance during a Week 8 home matchup against the Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 27.

2024 NFL Bad Beats: Saints score last-minute touchdown to shift point total

Check out what transpired to cause a bad beat for several bettors in the Thursday Night Football matchup between the Saints and the Broncos.

2024 NFL Bad Beats: Saints score last-minute touchdown to shift point total
Devaughn Vele - Solid gain on one reception Vele secured one of three targets for 20 yards in the Broncos' 33-10 win over the Saints on Thursday night.
Impact The rookie made an impact with his one catch, although his final line was underwhelming in comparison to his performance against the Chargers just four days prior. Vele had posted a 4-78 line on six targets in that contest, but in fairness, Bo Nix was required to do less in the passing game Thursday night than he did versus Los Angeles. Vele's production will likely remain difficult to trust week to week, but he'll draw a good matchup against the Panthers in a Week 8 home clash on Sunday, Oct. 27.

Troy Franklin - Paces pass catchers Thursday Franklin secured five of six targets for 50 yards in the Broncos' 33-10 win over the Saints on Thursday night.
Impact Franklin led the Broncos across the board in receiving stats, setting the pace in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The rookie also tallied a team-high 30-yard catch, and all of his metrics Thursday qualified as season/career highs. The one time college teammate of Bo Nix appears to be upping his NFL chemistry with him heading into a favorable Week 8 home matchup against the Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 27.
OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE
Javonte Williams - Pair of touchdowns in win Williams rushed 14 times for 88 yards and two touchdowns while bringing in all three targets for 23 yards in the Broncos' 33-10 win over the Saints on Thursday night.
Impact Williams put together a season-best effort in the lopsided win, recording his first two touchdowns of the season on eight- and five-yard rushes in the second and third quarters, respectively. Williams' rushing yardage total was also a season high, and he extended his streak of games with multiple receptions to six. After a nightmarish start to the season that saw Williams net 52 rushing yards on 24 carries over the first three games, the fourth-year back has bounced back to average 5.1 yards per carry over the subsequent four contests. Williams will have a golden opportunity to extend his productive stretch of play when the Broncos host the Panthers in a Week 8 home matchup on Sunday, Oct. 27.

Bo Nix - Efficient in big win Nix completed 16 of 26 passes for 164 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed 10 times for 75 yards in the Broncos' 33-10 win over the Saints on Thursday night.
Impact Nix faced a Saints team that was significantly short-handed on offense, so he had the luxury of being able to run a fairly conservative game plan that limited his exposure as a passer. The rookie managed to remain free of turnovers for the fourth time in the last five games, and he connected with six different targets overall. Nix's rush attempts and rushing yards were both new career highs as well, and he appears to be making solid week-to-week progress heading into a favorable Week 8 home matchup against the vulnerable Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 27.

Zach Wilson - Emergency QB for Week 7 Wilson (coach's decision) will serve as Denver's emergency third quarterback for Thursday's game against New Orleans, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Impact Wilson will once again serve as the emergency quarterback for the Broncos for Thursday's contest. He will only see the field if both starter Bo Nix and backup Jarrett Stidham were removed from the game due to injury.

Saints place Shaheed on IR, deactivate Hill and add receivers for Broncos matchup

The New Orleans Saints placed Rashid Shaheed on injured reserve after the starting receiver had what is expected to be season-ending knee surgery

Damarri Mathis - Will play vs. New Orleans Mathis (ankle) is active for Thursday night's game against the Saints, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Impact Mathis was activated from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game, and the 2022 fourth-round pick will indeed suit up for the contest. He'll bring some much-needed depth to the Broncos' secondary due to Patrick Surtain being sidelined with a concussion.
OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE
Greg Dulcich - Not playing Thursday Dulcich (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Saints, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Impact Dulcich will be a healthy scratch for a third straight week as the Broncos roll with Adam Trautman and Lucas Krull as their two tight ends for Thursday night's game. Dulcich's next opportunity to suit up will be Week 8 against the Panthers on Oct. 27. He played in the first four games of the regular season, but his five catches for 28 yards all came in the first two games of the year.
OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE
Mike McGlinchey - Reinstated from injured reserve The Broncos activated McGlinchey (knee) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday night's game against the Saints, Aric DiLalla of Denver's official site reports.
Impact McGlinchey landed on IR due a knee injury he sustained in Week 2 against the Steelers. His practice window opened Tuesday, and his ability to log a full practice Wednesday indicates that he should be available to return for Thursday's contest. McGlinchey started the first two games of the regular season at right tackle, and he should reclaim his starting job.

Damarri Mathis - Activated ahead of TNF The Broncos have activated Mathis (ankle) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Saints, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.
Impact Mathis has not officially been cleared to play in Thursday's game, but his activation from IR is a positive sign regardless. With star cornerback Patrick Surtain (concussion) sidelined, Mathis' potential season debut would be quite timely.
OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE
Baron Browning - Activated off IR The Broncos activated Browning (foot) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game against the Saints, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Impact Browning missed the Broncos' last four games due to a foot injury he sustained in Week 2 against the Steelers. His practice window to return from IR opened up Tuesday, and he was able to practice as a full participant in Wednesday's session. Given his activation off IR, it seems Browning should be in line to return for Thursday night's game, though he could operate on a snap count.
