    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Makes key grabs in Week 8 win

    Jaylen Waddle caught three of six targets for 39 yards and a touchdown and added a two-point conversion in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City.Despite the fact that the wideout is playing through a chest injury, Waddle came up big when it counted, connecting with Bo Nix on a one-yard TD in the second quarter before snagging a two-point conversion in the fourth as Denver mounted a comeback from a 24-13 deficit. Waddle's 29-315-2 line on 51 targets through his first eight games as a Bronco is disappointing, but he still has time to pick up the pace beginning with a Week 9 tilt against the Panthers.

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Is active for Sunday's game

    Jaylen Waddle (chest) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Denver Broncos' official site reports.Waddle attempted to play through a chest injury in Week 7, but he exited in the fourth quarter and didn't return. He then didn't practice to open Week 8 prep before back-to-back limited sessions Thursday and Friday left him listed as questionable. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Sunday morning that Waddle is trending well to play, which now has been confirmed. Since joining the Broncos via trade in the offseason, Waddle has had one vintage performance (8-138-0 on 10 targets versus Jacksonville in Week 2), but he otherwise has combined for an 18-138-1 line on 35 targets in his six other appearances in 2026.

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Listed as questionable for Sunday

    Jaylen Waddle (chest) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs after he was a limited participant in Friday's practice.After opening the week with a missed practice and then logging limited sessions Thursday and Friday, Waddle's status remains unsettled heading into the weekend. The Denver Broncos and Chiefs are scheduled for a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, which could mean limited alternatives for fantasy managers if Waddle comes down to a game-time decision and then doesn't play. If that were to happen, Denver would likely look to Troy Franklin, Marvin Mims and Lil'Jordan Humphrey to take more WR snaps alongside Courtland Sutton.

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Limited Thursday

    Jaylen Waddle (chest) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the Denver Broncos' official site reports.Waddle departed in the fourth quarter of this past Sunday's win at Arizona due to a chest injury, which limited him in practice last Wednesday and Thursday before he returned to a full session Friday and didn't enter the weekend with a designation. This week has been a different story, though, as he kicked it off with a DNP on Wednesday before Thursday's capped session. Friday's injury report will reveal Waddle's chances to suit up Sunday against the Chiefs.

    Jaylen Waddle (chest) is present for the medica-access portion of Thursday's practice, Chris Tomasson of the Denver Gazette reports.Waddle was listed as a non-participant despite being seen at the media-access portion of Wednesday's practice, so his fantasy managers shouldn't rejoice just yet. That being said, it's likely that the veteran wide receiver will put forth at least some level of participation Thursday, which will be clarified on Thursday's practice report. Waddle faced limitations in practice during Week 7 prep due to a chest injury that he ultimately aggravated in a win over the Cardinals.

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Misses Wednesday's practice

    Jaylen Waddle (chest) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice.After being present for the session earlier in the day, according to Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com, Waddle was subsequently deemed to have been a non-participant after all. The wideout thus has two more opportunities to log practice reps ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs. If Waddle is limited or out this weekend, Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims (ankle, limited Wednesday) would be in line to see added Week 8 opportunities.

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Uncertain to play Sunday

    Jaylen Waddle aggravated a previous chest injury during last week's 30-16 win over the Cardinals, and his status for Sunday's game against the Chiefs will be determined based on how he fares in practice this week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.Waddle recorded four receptions for 48 yards on seven targets against Arizona before checking out of the game in the fourth quarter due to the lingering chest issue, which had limited his participation in two practices during Week 7 prep. The wideout's practice activity appears likely to be affected in Week 8, but the Denver Broncos aren't yet counting him out from suiting up against the Chiefs.

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Chest injury confirmed

    Jaylen Waddle didn't return to Sunday's 30-16 win over the Cardinals due to a chest injury, Parker Gabriel of the Denver Post reports.Waddle went to the locker room in the fourth quarter, and the Denver Broncos confirmed shortly before the end of the game that he was dealing with a chest injury. Sunday's injury could be an aggravation of the chest injury that bothered Waddle in practice leading up to the game. Waddle's likely to pop up on the injury report as the Broncos prepare for a Week 8 rematch with the Chiefs, who defeated Denver in Week 1. He finished with four catches for 48 yards on seven targets against the Cardinals.
