Broncos Defense Fails To Record Turnover Against Jets

The Denver Broncos defense continues to do enough to give the team a chance to win games, but the offense can't do its part.

Brandon McManus Falls Flat In Week 7 Loss

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus turned out to be a bust as a fantasy streamer in the 16-9 Week 7 loss to the New York Jets. His day started off on a bad note when he missed his only extra-point try, and he made just one of his two field-goal attempts on the season to […]

Jerry Jeudy Leads Broncos In Receiving In Week 7

Most fantasy managers likely had Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy firmly on their benches in the Week 7 matchup with the New York Jets. But with quarterback Brett Rypien filling in for the injured Russell Wilson (hamstring), Jeudy was Rypien's favorite target on the day and led the team in targets (11), receptions (seven) […]

Melvin Gordon III Doesn't Do Much With 13 Touches

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) was activated from Injured Reserve on Saturday and is officially active for Week 7 against the Washington Commanders.

The Carolina Panthers are listing running back Chuba Hubbard as their starting running back for the Week 7 matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first game since trading away star running back Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers this week.
