Broncos declared RB Jaleel McLaughlin inactive for Week 2 against the Colts.
McLaughlin has lost his spot on the game day roster to passing game specialist RB Tyler Badie. Broncos head coach Sean Payton and OC Joe Lombardi sang Badie’s praises this week, highlighting his ability to keep Bo Nix upright in pass protection. Badie also earned five targets against the Titans in Week 1. His usage reduces fantasy-scoring projections for Nos. 1 and 2 RBs, J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey. The Broncos also declared LB Dre Greenlaw (quad), DL Sai’vion Jones, OLB Que Robinson, TE Nate Adkins, OT Frank Crum and QB Sam Ehlinger inactive for Week 2 against the Colts.
