INJURIES

Troy Franklin - Minimal involvement against Raiders Franklin caught one of his two targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.
Impact Franklin played just 11 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, the fewest of any Denver wide receiver. Despite his minimal usage, the rookie hit a season-high for receiving yards (20) on his one catch against the Raiders. Its possible that Franklin's role could grow within Denver's offense as the season progresses while his college teammate and current quarterback Bo Nix continues to develop this season. Until then, the former Oregon wideout will be off the fantasy radar. The Broncos are set to host the Chargers in Week 6.

Lil'Jordan Humphrey - Two grabs in Week 5 Humphrey secured both of his targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.
Impact After failing to record a catch in Week 4, Humphrey improved upon his disappointing outing with a two-catch game against the Raiders in Week 5. Rookie quarterback Bo Nix and Denver's passing attack took a step forward Sunday, as the signal caller was able to spread the ball around to 11 different pass catchers in the contest. The 26-year-old Humphrey played the second-most snaps at wide receiver for the Broncos, seeing the field for 40 of Denver's 63 offensive snaps. As Denver continues to find its way on offense, its possible the veteran could parlay his consistent playing time into improved production for fantasy purposes. Humphrey and the Broncos will host the Chargers in Week 6.
OCTOBER 8 • ROTOWIRE
Josh Reynolds - Hits pay dirt in win Reynolds caught one of two targets for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.
Impact Reynolds touchdown Sunday was his first score of the 2024 campaign, coming on a day when the Broncos passing attack found its groove. With that said, the veteran wideout was not involved heavily in the offense against the Raiders, playing on 48 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps while seeing targets on just two of quarterback Bo Nix's 27 pass attempts. Through five games, Reynolds has totaled twelve receptions for 183 yards on 19 targets. The 29-year-old will look to build off Sunday's performance when the Broncos host the Chargers in Week 6.

NFL Week 5 highlights: Cowboys top Steelers late, Vikings win early
Jaleel McLaughlin - Finds end zone against Vegas McLaughlin rushed the ball six times for 22 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders. He added three receptions on four targets for three yards and a touchdown.
Impact McLaughlin worked as the change-of-pace back to Javonte Williams and now has at least nine touches in three games this season. He didn't work efficiently as either a pass catcher or rusher in Sunday's win, though he did contribute a four-yard touchdown reception halfway through the third quarter. Though it was his second trip to the end zone of the season, his limited volume makes him an unreliable fantasy contributor.
OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Courtland Sutton - Held quiet on five targets Sutton recorded two receptions on five targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.
Impact Sutton led the Broncos' wide receivers in targets, though Javonte Williams and Jaleel McLaughlin were used heavily as pass catchers and diminished Sutton's volume. His most impactful contribution was a 24-yard reception midway through the fourth quarter to set up a touchdown to Josh Reynolds on the next play. Sutton has had reliable targets early this season, but he has yet to reach 70 yards in a game.
OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Javonte Williams - Excellent as pass catcher Williams rushed the ball 13 times for 61 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders. He added five receptions on six targets for 50 yards.
Impact Williams' longest gain on the ground went for 17 yards, but he gained at least four yards on seven of his 13 carries to turn in an efficient performance. He's shown flashes as a pass catcher in recent weeks, and that also continued Sunday as he ripped off long gains of 26 and 13 yards as a receiver. After a slow start to the campaign, Williams has at least 18 touches in three of five games, with this marking his first time surpassing 100 yards from scrimmage.

Raiders see 8-game win streak vs. Broncos end in 34-18 loss amid penalties, turnovers and drama

Alex Palczewski - Dealing with high-ankle sprain Palczewski (ankle) is believed to have suffered a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Impact Palczewski underwent X-rays, which came back negative, after exiting Sunday's game in the second half. The offensive lineman is expected to undergo additional tests Monday to determine the severity of the injury.

Bo Nix - Leads efficient offense Nix completed 19 of 27 passes for 206 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders. He added eight rushes for nine yards and an additional scor...
Impact Nix didn't have his best game from a yardage perspective, but his command of the offense looks to remain on the upswing. He averaged 7.6 yards per attempt and completed five passes of at least 20 yards -- both of which marked career bests. After throwing a pair of picks in each of his two games as a pro, Nix now has also started to avoid mistakes with zero turnovers across his last three matchups. While things have improved, he's still not likely to be a consistent source of fantasy points as he has yet to reach 250 passing yards in a game and Sunday's win marked his first effort with multiple passing scores.

Alex Palczewski - Won't return vs. Las Vegas Palczewski has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Raiders due to an ankle injury, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

Greg Dulcich - Inactive versus Raiders Dulcich is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
