• Broncos' Troy Franklin: Held catchless in debut

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Frankin failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 13-6 loss to the Steelers. After being a healthy scratch in Week 1, Franklin was a complete nonfactor against the Steelers in Week 2. The rookie wideout saw the field for 12 of the Broncos' 61 offensive snaps, and he was unable to connect with his former college quarterback Bo Nix on the one target thrown his direction. Buried on the depth chart in a struggling passing attack, Franklin should remain far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 3 matchup with the Buccaneers.

• Broncos' Troy Franklin: Two touches in win

  24D ago • By RotoWire

  Franklin caught his lone target for 21 yards and carried once for nine yards in Sunday's 38-12 preseason win over the Cardinals. Franklin finally found his way onto the stat sheet in Sunday's preseason finale, handling his first two touches while playing 50 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps in the contest. The rookie wideout is a work in progress, but in Denver, he finds himself in a solid situation that could be conducive to his development. Bo Nix, his college quarterback, was named the starter ahead of Week 1, so the history the two have with one another could bode well for the 6-foot-3, 180-pound receiver. In addition, it appears the Broncos will cut ties with veteran wideout Tim Patrick ahead of the 2024 campaign, according to Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. With final roster cuts upcoming, Franklin is positioned to make the 53-man roster in a depth role behind Courtland Sutton, Josh Reynolds and Marvin Mims.
