Perine is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers with a knee injury. Perine was listed as a full participant in practices Wednesday and Thursday, but he might have suffered a setback at some point along the way after downgrading to no activity Friday. Given the way he ended the week of practice, Perine may not be ready to play Sunday, though official word on his status should come when Denver releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. If Perine is out this weekend, rookie Jaleel McLaughlin could be in line for additional snaps behind Javonte Williams, particularly on passing downs.

Perine is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers with a knee injury. Perine was listed as a full participant in practices Wednesday and Thursday, but he might have suffered a setback at some point along the way after downgrading to no activity Friday. Given the way he ended the week of practice, Perine may not be ready to play Sunday, though official word on his status should come when Denver releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. If Perine is out this weekend, rookie Jaleel McLaughlin could be in line for additional snaps behind Javonte Williams, particularly on passing downs.
Mims (ribs) was a full participant in Thursday's practice. Mims was one of five Broncos who was listed as a limited participant in the team's first Week 14 practice Wednesday, but each member of that quintet took full reps during Thursday's session. The rookie wideout thus appears to be good to go for Sunday's game against the Chargers, and though he's generally seen his snaps increase since Denver's Week 9 bye, he still doesn't profile as a bankable fantasy option at this stage. In the Broncos' four games since the bye, Mims has cobbled together a modest 5-41-0 receiving line on nine targets to go with 16 yards on three carries.
Mims has progressed from the No. 4 WR role to No. 3 in terms of playing time, but he actually had more luck putting up numbers early in the season when he was playing fewer than 20 snaps each week. He had four catches of 38-plus yards in his first four games -- plus a kick return TD -- and has since failed to record a reception spanning more than 16 yards. The ability to practice in any capacity Wednesday suggests Mims should be able to face the Chargers this Sunday, but there's not much reason to expect more than two or three targets and maybe a carry.
Harris recorded three solo tackles for the second straight week, and his one sack in the contest was his first of the season. The veteran defensive lineman has now amassed 37 tackles (22 solo) and one sack thus far in the 2023 campaign. Though Harris hasn't been a major contributor this season, he'll look to build upon this performance in a Week 14 matchup with the Chargers.
With his eight total tackles in Week 13, Locke topped his former season-high mark of seven tackles set just one week earlier. The veteran safety also recorded a sack for the second straight week. Locke is making the most of his opportunity with Kareem Jackson continuing to serve a suspension. The 26-year-old is proving to be a reliable member of Denver's defense with the ability to make impact plays. Locke and the the Broncos' are set to visit the Chargers in Week 14.
Following Sunday's performance, Singleton has now totaled double-dight tackles in nine out of 12 games this season. The veteran linebacker was the Broncos' leading tackler once again, while his sack was his first of the 2023 campaign. Singleton is locked in as a strong IDP option and will look to continue his streak of dominance when the Broncos visit the Chargers in Week 14.
Lutz continued his perfect streak on field-goal attempts Sunday, making all 12 of his tries since Week 10. With that said, the veteran kicker was unable to produce much against the Texans as the Broncos' offense struggled to get much going throughout the contest. Lutz will look to have more of an impact on the scoreboard when the Broncos visit the Chargers in Week 14.
Trautman recorded just one catch for the second straight week, playing a minimal role in the Broncos' offense again. Despite operating as Denver's No. 1 tight end, the veteran isn't a significant part of the Broncos' offensive game plan each week. Trautman should remain out of fantasy lineups heading into a Week 14 matchup with the Chargers.
