Pat Bryant

Bryant seemingly suffered a hamstring strain in today's practice. Mid-week additions to the injury report are never a good sign. The third-round rookie has been more involved on game day, as of late, earning 13 targets over the last two weeks. Hopefully, he can rehab the injury quickly and get back to honing his craft.

James Koh takes you through his snap share report from Week 13 with players whose stock is up or down.

Bryant's seven targets ranked second on the team behind veteran tight end Evan Engram, likely bolstered by the zone-heavy nature of Dan Quinn's Washington defense. That also limited Bryant's ability to break free downfield, which has been his calling card since earning more work in Week 5. Most notable was the fact that he continued to play well ahead of Marvin Mims, which appears likely to continue as we head down the back stretch of the regular season.

Career highs in catches, targets, and yards are following Bryant's somewhat expanded role since Week 5. He's played at least 30 snaps in every game since then, and the Chiefs let him get free for a 48-yarder that momentarily landed Bryant in concussion protocol before he returned later in the game. Heading into the bye, we don't think Bryant is necessarily a good bet to explode on to the scene in the fantasy playoffs, but he's building a case that it's in the range of outcomes. He's banished Marvin Mims (15 snaps in return from a concussion) to an ancillary gadget role.

He'll try to get his WR3 role or a split back from Pat Bryant today. Inactive for the Broncos are CB Patrick Surtain (pectoral), LB Alex Singleton (illness), LB Jonah Elliss (hamstring), T Geron Christian, DL Jordan Jackson, and DE Sai'vion Jones.
