The Denver Broncos are 2-1 this season, but wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. has struggled to find a role. After playing minimally in Week 1 and missing Weeks 2 and 3 due to a foot injury, Mims returned to practice on Wednesday and is expected to play in Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers. With the emergence of other receivers in the Broncos' passing game, questions loom about Mims' future, especially since he is set to become a free agent in 2027. The team may consider his contract status as they approach the trade deadline on November 10.
