Adrian Killins Jr. - Slated to miss timeKillins (ankle) will be out "a while," Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

ImpactKillins hurt his ankle in Saturday's preseason win over the Seahawks, and it seems unlikely that he'll be available Saturday against the Rams. The 23-year-old signed with the Broncos on Tuesday, and his absence will likely impact his chances to make the 53-man roster.

Noah Fant - Quiet in limited roleFant wasn't targeted in 21 offensive snaps in Saturday's 30-3 win over the Seahawks.

ImpactFant was a non-factor in Week 2 of the preseason, but the 23-year-old tight end figures to be a key component of the Broncos' passing attack in 2021. According to Nick Kosmider of The Athletic, Fant likely will be used in creative ways and run routes deeper down field, as well. The 6-foot-4, 249-pounder will compete for targets with the likes of Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy and KJ Hamler in the passing game, so it may be tough for him to find consistent production in the Denver offense. However, it appears the coaching staff would like to get Fant more involved, so the former first-round pick may earn a solid percentage of the target share among Denver's pass catchers.

Cade Johnson - Targeted seven timesJohnson caught three of seven targets for 34 yards in Saturday's 30-3 preseason loss to the Broncos.

ImpactJohnson now has 12 targets through the first two preseason games, and he has recorded seven receptions for 59 yards (4.9 YPT). With news that John Ursua is out for the year with a torn ACL, Johnson has a path to a spot on the 53-man roster if the Seahawks choose to keep six wide receivers.

Alex Collins - Puts up 37 yardsCollins rushed seven times for 20 yards and caught both of his targets for 17 yards in Saturday's 30-3 preseason loss to the Broncos.

ImpactChris Carson didn't play in Saturday's game, leaving Collins, Rashaad Penny, DeeJay Dallas and Josh Johnson to pick up the backfield reps. The four running backs totaled 58 yards on 21 carries; none of them showed anything of note. Penny still is considered the front runner for the No. 2 job behind Carson, so Collins is aiming for the No. 3 role.

Josh Johnson - Logs 10 touchesJohnson rushed nine times for 30 yards and caught his lone target for seven yards in Saturday's 30-3 preseason loss to the Broncos.

ImpactJohnson led the backfield in touches, but we shouldn't read into it too much, as they were all in the fourth quarter, while nearly all the starters were on the sidelines. The undrafted rookie out of Louisiana-Monroe has an uphill climb to secure a roster spot.

John Ursua - Diagnosed with torn ACLUrsua tore his ACL during Saturday's preseason contest against the Broncos, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

ImpactUrsua was carted off the field and it was feared the injury was serious. He took to social media Sunday to confirm he had torn his ACL and would be out for the season. As a rookie in 2020, Ursua recorded one reception on his lone target for 11 yards.
