PatBryant

News: 1 day agoBryant caught four of five targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-21 win over Carolina.

Spin: Bryant was activated from IR on Saturday after recovering from an ankle injury, and he came up big late in Sunday's contest, hauling in a 26-yard TD strike from Bo Nix with less than six minutes left in the fourth quarter for what proved to be the game-winning score. The second-year wideout's clutch play came after Jaylen Waddle (concussion) had left the game, and if a Week 10 bye doesn't give him enough time to recover, Bryant could see an elevated role in Week 11 against the Raiders.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: A 2025 third-round pick, Bryant played a situational role throughout his rookie season and is likely to do the same in 2026 after Denver added Jaylen Waddle as a running mate for Courtland Sutton. Bryant will battle the likes of Troy Franklin, Marvin Mims Jr. and Lil'Jordan Humphrey for No. 3 duties. During his rookie campaign, Bryant barely saw the field early on, but eventually passed Franklin on the depth chart and earned more work down the stretch. That led to more snaps but not much fantasy production, as he failed to clear 13.2 fantasy points in a single game and found the end zone once. The 23-year-old isn't on the fantasy radar right now, but he makes for a fine dynasty stash.
