Denver Broncos DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant for the third straight practice ahead of the team's Week 6 matchup against the Chicago Bears. It's Engram's first whole week of practice since Week 2, when he injured his hamstring in pre-game warmups before Jacksonville's 18-13 loss to the Browns. He'll officially get a questionable designation. While Chicago is listed as the "home" team via technicality, a trip to London is as much of a home game for the Jags as an outing at EverBank Stadium. Wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) is regarded as questionable, too -- after a week of limited sessions of his own. If Engram and Davis cannot play, tight end Brenton Strange will continue to see an uptick in usage, while wideouts Christian Kirk and rookie Brian Thomas Jr. project to handle a majority of 2WR sets.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) was listed as limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Engram hasn't played since the season-opening loss to the Miami Dolphins after injuring his hamstring during pre-game warmups before Week 2, but head coach Doug Pederson said earlier this week that he's optimistic that the 30-year-old will be able to return this Sunday to face the Chicago Bears in London. For what it's worth, Engram was also limited all of last week before being held out of the Week 5 win over the division-rival Indianapolis Colts. Jacksonville could ease Engram back into the fold if he's active in London, making him a shaky low-end TE1 for fantasy managers if he plays. Backup Brenton Strange has two touchdowns in four games without Engram and would once again be a TE2 streamer if Engram is held out for a fifth straight game.

Barring a setback, signs are pointing toward Denver Broncos rookie running back Audric Estime (ankle) being activated from Injured Reserve for Sunday's Week 6 divisional matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, according to a source. Estime missed the required four games while on IR and was designated to return on Wednesday. He was listed as a full practice participant for the second straight day this week on Thursday. This isn't exactly what Javonte Williams' fantasy managers want to hear, even though he should continue to be Denver's lead back this weekend. Both Williams and Jaleel McLaughlin had more room to work in the Week 5 win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, but don't be surprised if the 21-year-old Estime carves out a small role once he gets up to speed. Estime is really only worth stashing in dynasty/keeper leagues for now.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) was limited in the first practice of the week on Wednesday. The Jaguars are optimistic that Engram can return to action in Week 6 against the Chicago Bears in London this Sunday after not playing since the season-opening loss to the Miami Dolphins. Engram injured his hamstring during pre-game warmups before Week 2 and hasn't played since. The 30-year-old two-time Pro Bowler had a career-best 963 receiving yards in 2023 in his second year in Jacksonville, but so far in 2024 he's been a fantasy bust due to his hamstring injury. Engram caught just one pass for five yards in Week 1. If he ends up returning to the field this Sunday in London, he'll be a low-end TE1 in fantasy, at best. Brenton Strange has filled in nicely for the Jags in Engram's absence and has found the end zone twice.

The Denver Broncos have signed wide receiver A.T. Perry to their practice squad on Tuesday. The 24-year-old was recently released by the New Orleans Saints after spending his rookie campaign with them in 2023. The former sixth-round continued to be a healthy scratch on gameday, so the team eventually decided to move on. Perry hauled in 12 receptions for 246 yards and four touchdowns across 10 games with the Saints last season. He'll be extra depth for the Broncos right now, but could find his way to the active roster at some point. For now, fantasy managers can leave Perry on the waiver wire.
