Mims caught two of four targets for 12 yards and gained an additional rushing yard on two carries in Sunday's 31-7 wild-card round loss to the Bills. After finishing the regular season with four TDs over the last two games, Mims wasn't able to get free against a stingy Buffalo secondary. The 2023 second-round pick was looking like he might be little more than a return specialist in the NFL until he caught fire down the stretch this year, posting a 28-434-6 line on 33 targets over his final seven regular-season contests and flashing some intriguing chemistry with quarterback Bo Nix. Mims will likely land on a lot of sleeper lists heading into 2025 fantasy drafts.

Mims caught two of four targets for 12 yards and gained an additional rushing yard on two carries in Sunday's 31-7 wild-card round loss to the Bills. After finishing the regular season with four TDs over the last two games, Mims wasn't able to get free against a stingy Buffalo secondary. The 2023 second-round pick was looking like he might be little more than a return specialist in the NFL until he caught fire down the stretch this year, posting a 28-434-6 line on 33 targets over his final seven regular-season contests and flashing some intriguing chemistry with quarterback Bo Nix. Mims will likely land on a lot of sleeper lists heading into 2025 fantasy drafts.
Mims recorded five receptions on five targets for 51 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-0 win over the Chiefs. Mims continued his late-season breakout, and his day began with an impressive 32-yard catch and run into the end zone. He then tallied a seven-yard touchdown reception late in the third quarter, once again earning the majority of his yardage after the catch. While Mims doesn't necessarily win consistently as a traditional receiver, he's carved out a consistent role in the Denver offense having commanded at least four targets in six straight games to close the regular season.
Mims recorded eight receptions on eight targets for 103 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Bengals. Mims saw a career-high eight targets and turned in the third 100-yard performance in two years as a pro. He had a pair of highlight-reel touchdown receptions, the first coming on a 51-yard deep shot midway through the fourth quarter when he got behind a pair of defenders. Mims followed that up with a leaping 25-yard touchdown grab with eight seconds remaining in the fourth quarter to send the game to overtime. After failing to top 18 yards in a game through Week 10, Mims has at least 62 receiving yards in three of his last four games and is making the case to have a key role in Denver's offense in 2025.
Mims caught three of five targets for 62 yards and rushed once for three yards in Thursday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers. Mims played 47 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps, a season high for the speedy wideout. The second-year receiver's five targets matched a season high, as well, pointing toward an effort to get the Oklahoma product more involved in Denver's offense. As rookie quarterback Bo Nix has developed this season, the Broncos have found more success moving the ball through the air and spreading targets around to several pass catchers each week. Mims should continue to benefit from more dynamic play calling, but he'll also continue to be difficult to trust for consistent production while competing for targets with fellow wideouts Courtland Sutton, Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin. Next up for the Broncos is a Week 17 matchup against the Bengals.
Mims secured all four of his targets for 20 yards and rushed once for zero yards in Sunday's 31-13 win over the Colts. Mims played just 16 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, the least of any Denver wideout in the contest. After trending upwards in production in recent weeks, the 22-year-old wasn't able to get much going with his four targets from quarterback Bo Nix. Mims does not receive enough consistent playing time and opportunities to be trusted for fantasy purposes as the season's conclusion draws near. The second-year receiver will look to bounce back in a Week 16 matchup against the Chargers.
Mims had three catches (four targets) for 105 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 41-32 win over the Browns. Mims was the leading receiver for Denver after breaking off a 93-yard touchdown reception in an exciting win on Monday Night Football. The 22-year-old only gained 12 yards on his remaining two receptions, reminding fantasy managers how little the wideout can be involved in this offense. Mims has only been a reserve for Denver in his sophomore season, resulting in a previous game-high of 49 yards in 12 games prior to Monday's output. With a bye week on tap, Mims shouldn't be a top waiver add in Week 14.
Mims caught three of his five targets for 44 yards, took two carries for negative two yards, and returned a punt for 22 yards during Sunday's 29-19 win at Las Vegas. Mims only played 16 of the Broncos' 65 offensive snaps in Week 12, but he was still able to get five touches. He now has at least five touches in all of his last three games, but his relegation to a gadget role makes him hard to trust in fantasy lineups when Denver hosts the Browns in Week 13.
Mims caught both of his targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-6 win over the Falcons. He added three carries for four yards. Though Mims played just 14 of the Broncos' 62 offensive snaps Sunday, the second-year wideout was able to make the most of his opportunities against the Falcons. The 22-year-old's scored his first touchdown of the 2024 campaign on a 12-yard pass from quarterback Bo Nix in the waning moments of the first half. With Mims seeing 12 touches over the past three weeks, his increased usage in Denver's offense is worth monitoring. With that said, the Oklahoma product remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as the Broncos head into a Week 12 matchup against the Raiders.
Mims caught all four of his targets for 13 yards and rushed three times for 17 yards in Sunday's 16-14 loss to the Chiefs. Mims' targets, catches and 30 total yards offensive yards were all season highs for the second-year wide receiver. Despite playing just 13 of the Broncos' 58 offensive snaps in the contest, the 22-year-old handled seven total touches in the contest, the most of any Denver wideout. Unfortunately, Mims was unable to turn his opportunities into much fantasy relevant production. The speedster will look to take a step forward in a Week 11 matchup against the Falcons, but his limited snap share should keep him off the fantasy radar.
