Broncos inactive report gives Bo Nix and the offense a huge boost just moments before Week 4 matchup vs. Cincinnati Bengals
The Denver Broncos got some much-needed good news ahead of the ‘Monday Night Football’ contest.
The Denver Broncos and Cincinnati Bengals are set for action in Week 4 of the NFL season on ‘Monday Night Football’ with Denver looking to bounce back after some heartbreaking losses.
Ahead of the contest, the team got some good news regarding All-Pro returner Marvin Mims Jr. Denver is going to have one of the most dynamic playmakers in all of football, as Mims Jr. is just the second player in team history to be named an All-Pro in his first two seasons.
While Mims Jr. hasn’t shown his full potential in the offense, his abilities as a return man cannot be overstated, and his being active will go a long way toward the team having long-term success. The dynamic returner popped up on the injury report Saturday for the first time and was listed as questionable. Quarterback Bo Nix and the offense get another weapon, and the special teams unit gets one of the best players in the entire league back and healthy with a huge game on the line.

Rounding out the inactive report for the Broncos are defensive lineman Jordan Jackson, running back Jaleel McLaughlin, quarterback Sam Ehlinger, outside linebacker Que Robinson, offensive lineman Frank Crum, and tight end Lucas Krull.
Another boost for the team is that rookie defensive lineman Sai’vion Jones has been activated and will see his first NFL action of the season.
The team elevated special teams linebacker Garrett Wallow from the practice squad before the matchup. This was the third straight game where Wallow was called up, and he’s played in 33 special teams snaps. After the contest, the team will be forced to add him to their 53-man roster, per the practice squad elevation rules.
Cincinnati Bengals inactives vs. Denver Broncos
Denver isn’t the only one coming in shorthanded, as the Bengals released their inactive report ahead of the contest as well. For Cincinnati, they will be without defensive end Shemar Stewart and tight end Noah Fant, who were ruled out of the contest on Saturday.
Outside of those two players, the Bengals’ inactive report included receiver Jermaine Burton, defensive tackle McKinnley Jackson, and defensive tackle Howard Cross III.
All that’s left to do is play football, and Broncos Country won’t have to wait long. With Mims Jr. available and the team looking to be at or near full health, which is all that you can ask for ahead of the contest.
