Denver Broncos expect Marvin Mims to play against Kansas City Chiefs

The Denver Broncos have indicated that All-Pro playmaker Marvin Mims is expected to be available for their Monday night season opener against the Kansas City Chiefs. Mims was the only player listed on the team's initial injury report of the week. While the Broncos enter the matchup with limited injury concerns, the Chiefs reported 10 players on their injury report, including starting defensive back Chamarri Conner and offensive tackle Josh Simmons. Both Conner and Simmons were listed as non-participants in Thursday's practice, though their availability remains subject to further medical clearance. Mims enters the season in the final year of his contract and faces internal competition for targets following the offseason addition of Jaylen Waddle. The Broncos aim for their first win of the season as they prepare for the prime-time AFC West clash.
