Thornton caught two of four targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Commanders.

Thornton matched Jakobi Meyers' four targets, but fellow wideout Tre Tucker erupted for an 8-145-3 receiving line on nine looks from quarterback Geno Smith, who produced 289 passing yards on just 19 completions in the Raiders' defeat. Thornton has been targeted exactly four times in each of Las Vegas' first three games, and he remains ahead of fellow rookie Jack Bech in the WR3 role with a Week 4 tilt against the Bears looming.

Laube rushed three times for two yards and failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Commanders. He also returned three kickoffs for 60 yards.

Laube wasn't dealt an offensive touch until after the two-minute warning in the first half, and that two-yard carry was his longest of the day. Primarily involved on special teams, Laube remains the Raiders' RB3 behind rookie Ashton Jeanty and Zamir White ahead of a Week 4 matchup against the Bears.

White rushed five times for 19 yards and caught one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Commanders. He also returned one kickoff for 27 yards.

White logged 19 offensive snaps to Jeanty's 40 in the Raiders' Week 3 defeat, and the rookie out-carried White with 17 rushing attempts to five, though each running back averaged less than 4.0 yards per carry during a tough day on the ground. Once again, White figures to serve as Jeanty's primary backup Week 4 against the Bears, providing more contingent value than standalone.

Strnad recorded five total tackles and one pass defensed in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chargers.

For the third straight game, Strnad was credited for five total tackles. The veteran linebacker has now recorded 15 total tackles (five solo) through three games while also logging two sacks, the second-highest total among all Denver defenders. Strnad should continue to play a prominent role in the Broncos' defense while teammate Dre Greenlaw (quadriceps) is on injured reserve. The 29-year-old will look to make an impact in Week 4 when the Broncos host the Bengals with quarterback Jake Browning at the helm.

Hufanga logged six tackles (four solo) and two passes defensed in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chargers.

Hufanga played all but one of the Broncos' 86 defensive snaps Sunday, continuing his solid start to his first season in Denver. The veteran safety has now recorded a team-high 27 total tackles through three games, proving why the Broncos were wise to sign him in free agency this offseason. Hufanga will look to build upon this momentum in Week 4 when the Broncos host the Bengals.

Tracy, who suffered a dislocated shoulder Sunday, is expected to be sidelined two to four weeks, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Per Dan Salomone and Matt Citak of the Giants' official site, coach Brian Daboll noted Monday that the team was still in the process of getting more information about the running back's injury, but it looks like Tracy is going to miss some time. In that scenario, added backfield reps, beginning this weekend against the Chargers, would be available for Cam Skattebo and Devin Singletary.

Krull caught one of his two targets for nine yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chargers.

Krull played 22 of Broncos' 52 offensive snaps, the most of any Denver tight end ahead of both Adam Trautman (19) and Nate Adkins (18). With teammate Evan Engram (back) ruled out for the contest, Krull was unable to make the most of his opportunity atop the depth chart. Even if Engram is forced to miss more time, the 27-year-old Krull remains far off the fantasy radar due to his limited role in Denver's passing attack. Next up for the Broncos is a matchup against the Bengals in Week 4.

Trautman failed to record a single target in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chargers.

Trautman was a nonfactor against the Chargers despite teammate Evan Engram (back) being ruled out for the contest. The veteran tight end played just 19 of the Broncos' 52 offensive snaps, second among Denver tight ends behind Lucas Krull (22). Even with Engram sidelined, Trautman remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes based on his limited usage in the passing game. Fantasy managers should not rely on the 28-year-old in a Week 4 matchup against the Bengals, even if Engram misses more time.

Bryant failed to record a single target in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chargers.

Bryant was a nonfactor Sunday, playing just 13 of the Broncos' 52 offensive snaps in the contest. The rookie wideout remains stuck on the depth chart behind fellow receivers Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Marvin Mims and Trent Sherfield. Bryant remains off the fantasy radar until his role in the offense develops. Nonetheless, the 22-year-old will have his next opportunity to earn more playing time when the Broncos host the Bengals in Week 3.

Mims caught one of four targets for four yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chargers.

Mims continued his disappointing start to the 2025 campaign, as the third-year wide receiver has recorded just six catches for 40 yards and a touchdown through three games. The 23-year-old operated as Denver's No. 3 wideout behind both Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin. Quarterback Bo Nix and Mims had trouble connecting in the contest, as Nix struggled with accuracy while pushing the ball down the field. The Oklahoma product hasn't had the role in the Broncos' offense that fantasy managers hoped for thus far, making him extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. Mims will look to get more involved in Denver's aerial attack when the Broncos host the Bengals and their vulnerable defense in Week 4.
