• Broncos' Troy Franklin: Two catches against Colts

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Franklin caught two of five targets for nine yards in Sunday's 31-13 win over the Colts. Operating as Denver's No. 3 wide receiver, Franklin played 29 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps behind Courtland Sutton (57) and Devaughn Vele (38). Sunday's contest marked the fourth straight game in which the rookie wideout recorded two grabs. With that said, his limited involvement has not led to much statistical production for the Oregon product. Franklin should remain off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 16 matchup against the Chargers.

• Broncos' Troy Franklin: Minimal production in win

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Franklin caught two of his five targets for 28 yards in Monday's 41-32 win over the Browns. Franklin has now recorded just two receptions in three straight games, while playing around 42 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps per game in that span. The rookie wideout has played in a secondary role in Denver's offense as he continues to develop in head coach Sean Payton's system. Franklin's chemistry with quarterback Bo Nix from their time at Oregon has helped him to garner steady targets throughout the season, but he isn't seeing enough volume to be trusted for fantasy purposes. The 21-year-old heads into the Broncos' Week 14 bye with a total of 21 catches for 218 yards and two touchdowns through 12 games. The Broncos will return from the bye to host the Colts on Dec. 15.

• Broncos' Troy Franklin: Finds end zone in Week 11

  11/18/2024 • By RotoWire

  Franklin caught both of his targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-6 win over the Falcons. Franklin's touchdown against Atlanta was his second of the season, as the rookie wideout continues to play in a rotational role in the Broncos' passing offense. The Oregon product played 44 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps Sunday, and he's played over 50 percent of snaps in just one of his 10 games this season. Though Franklin's development thus far has been a positive sign for his future NFL success, his limited usage makes him unreliable for fantasy purposes. The Broncos head to Las Vegas for a matchup with the Raiders in Week 12.

• Broncos' Troy Franklin: One grab in Week 9

  11/04/2024 • By RotoWire

  Franklin caught one of four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Ravens. Franklin finished Sunday's game third in targets behind fellow wideouts Courtland Sutton (10) and Lil'Jordan Humphrey (five). Unfortunately, the rookie receiver was only able to reel in one pass from quarterback Bo Nix. Though Nix and Franklin have begun to develop their chemistry in the NFL after playing together at Oregon, the pair will likely continue to be inconsistent as the Broncos' offense goes through growing pains during the 2024 campaign. Franklin will look to bounce back in Week 10, albeit in a tough matchup against the division-rival Chiefs.

• Broncos' Troy Franklin: Paces pass catchers Thursday

  10/18/2024 • By RotoWire

  Franklin secured five of six targets for 50 yards in the Broncos' 33-10 win over the Saints on Thursday night. 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 the rookie signal-caller heading into a favorable Week 8 home matchup against the Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 27.
