Denver Broncos

Tyler Badie

RB

Badie was knocked out of the Broncos' contest versus the Seahawks in Week 6 early by a thumb injury, and now his status for Week 7 is in jeopardy. Unless he's able to return to practice Friday, odds are not great he'll be able to play Sunday at Arizona.

Pat Surtain II

CB

Surtain appears to have a decent chance to return to action Sunday against the Cardinals after he's missed the past two games for Denver. He'd be set for a date with Michael Wilson if active for Week 7.

Jonah Coleman

RB

Coleman has been full each of the first two days of the practice week but remains on injured reserve. He's eligible to be activated ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. In an offense looking for a jolt, Coleman could immediately have a significant role out of the backfield when he returns. The rookie running back should be rostered in all fantasy formats.

Jaylen Waddle

WR

With back-to-back limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Waddle appears to at least have a good chance to play through the issue Sunday against Arizona. Waddle has been one of the more disappointing early-round fantasy picks through six weeks, collecting just 22 catches for 228 yards and one touchdown on 38 targets across six games.

Talanoa Hufanga

S

Hufanga suffered an ankle injury during the Broncos' Week 5 win over the Chargers, and the severity of the injury was diagnosed as week-to-week. He didn't play against the Seahawks in Week 6, but he'll have two more opportunities to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Sunday's road tilt against the Cardinals. Devon Key will continue to operate in an expanded role in the Broncos' secondary for as long as Hufanga is sidelined.

Jonah Elliss

LB

Elliss suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter, and he was wearing a walking boot and using crutches after the contest. The silver lining is that the third-year pro avoided a season-ending injury, but it's severe enough for him that he'll likely require a stint on IR. Jonathon Cooper was reinstated from the commissioner's exempt list this past Friday and should operate in a large role opposite Nik Bonitto at the edge rusher position for as long as Elliss is sidelined.

Dallen Bentley

TE

Sam Ehlinger

QB

Kage Casey

OT

Tyler Onyedim

DT

Jordan Jackson

DT

Marvin Mims Jr.

WR

Mims once again did a little bit of everything during Thursday's OT win, and his four targets from Bo Nix ended up being tied with RJ Harvey for second-most on the Broncos behind Jaylen Waddle (seven). Mims' impact will mostly come on special teams, but over his last three games he's turned nine targets into five catches for 29 yards. The Broncos will hit the road for Week 7 against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Brandon Jones

S

Jones played all 85 defensive snaps in the overtime rock fight between two anemic offenses. The 28-year-old safety has piled up 43 tackles (26 solo), four pass breakups, including two interceptions, and one fumble recovery across six contests this season. He's logged 98.6 percent of the Broncos' defensive snaps.

Kris Abrams-Draine

CB

With Pat Surtain (ankle) inactive for the second straight game, Abrams-Draine played 76.5 percent of the Broncos' defensive snaps and had easily the best game of his young career. He picked off Sam Darnold late in the fourth quarter but was picked on in coverage for much of the night, as the Seahawks avoided Riley Moss' side of the field.

Alex Singleton

LB

Singleton played all 85 defensive snaps in the overtime victory and recorded his third game of double-digit tackles this season. For the year, he's up to 68 tackles (31 solo), three QB hits and one pass breakup across 99.8 percent of the Broncos' defensive snaps.

Ja'Quan McMillian

CB

With Pat Surtain (ankle) inactive, McMillian saw increased snaps, logging a season-high 76.5 percent of the defensive snaps. His interception of Sam Darnold in overtime set the Broncos up at Seattle's 43-yard line, leading to the eventual game-winning field goal. On the season, McMillian has 16 tackles (12 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and four pass breakups with the one interception.

Wil Lutz

PK

It was a relatively quiet night for Lutz, who had just two kick attempts (both PATs) in the first half. However, he answered the call in overtime with a 53-yard field goal to seal the win for the Broncos. It was his second make of 50-plus yards this season, and through six games, Lutz has gone 9-for-12 on field-goal attempts and 9-for-9 on extra-point tries. The Broncos will hit the road for Week 7 against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Jonathon Cooper

LB

Cooper was placed on the Exempt List on Aug. 30 while under investigation for domestic incidents that took place in June. The NFL is still conducting its own investigation, but as of now, Cooper is eligible to make his Broncos debut in Week 7 against the Cardinals.

Evan Engram

TE

Engram started and played 31 of 60 offensive snaps, but the Denver passing offense has been stuck in neutral all season to this point. Through six games. Engram has just 12 catches for 134 yards and a touchdown on 19 targets. Bo Nix has to this point mostly refused to throw the ball down the field, and all Denver pass catchers are suffering from it in the box score.

Courtland Sutton

WR

Sutton tied for third in receptions and targets while holding the same slotting in receiving yards for the Broncos on a night when Bo Nix could manage only 107 passing yards. The veteran wideout also took a hard hit on the one target he couldn't corral, and Sam Jane of The Denver Post reported Sutton was seen bent over and slightly limping on the sideline but never required a trip to the medical tent. Like fellow wideout Jaylen Waddle, the long-time Bronco's production has suffered as a result of Nix's tendency to stick to a very short-area passing attack this season, as Sutton is averaging a career-low 9.5 yards per reception heading into a Week 7 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Bo Nix

QB

Nix continued his season-long trend of sticking to mostly short-area passes, leading to a season-low passing yardage figure and average of 4.0 yards per attempt. The third-year signal-caller did reverse a trend of three straight games with sub-60.0 percent completion rates, but Nix also failed to throw a touchdown for the first time all season. Denver's defense did most of the heavy lifting, and both of the Broncos' touchdowns came on the ground, while Nix now has three sub-200-yard passing efforts in the last four contests. The Oregon product should have a good chance of boosting his numbers in Week 7, however, as the Broncos visit the defensively challenged Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.

RJ Harvey

RB

Harvey finished with a team-high receiving yardage total on a night when Bo Nix threw for only 107 yards, and the second-year back made key complementary contributions on the ground as well. Harvey scored his first touchdown of the season on a one-yard run with 5:15 remaining in the second quarter, while his rushing yardage total tied a season high. Harvey projects to remain in his change-of-pace role when the Broncos visit the Cardinals in a Week 7 matchup on Sunday, Oct. 25.

J.K. Dobbins

RB

Dobbins was in the customary position of leading the Broncos' ground attack in rush attempts and rushing yards, but he averaged only 2.4 yards per carry against a stingy Seahawks front. Nevertheless, the veteran back made a trip to the end zone for the second consecutive game, going in from four yards out early in the second quarter. After averaging 4.5 yards per carry in a Week 1 loss to the Chiefs, Dobbins has hit a wall in terms of efficiency, but he'll remain the top option in the ground attack for a favorable Week 7 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Riley Moss

CB

Pat Surtain (ankle) and Talanoa Hufanga (ankle) aren't available, so the Broncos will be without two of their starters in the secondary. However, Moss will be able to return from his one-game absence, helping shore up the short-handed secondary against the threat of Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
