Broncos RB Royce Freeman, TE Jeff Heuerman injured Week 8

There were all kinds of Broncos players grimacing as they put on their shirts and shoes Sunday. Royce Freeman (shoulder), Joe Flacco (neck), Jeff Heuerman (knee), Todd Davis (knee), Ja'Wuan James (knee).

Related players: Phillip Lindsay, Noah Fant

Fantasy Impact:

Freeman's shoulder injury isn't supposed to be serious according to reports but with the struggles this season there is no reason to rush him back.

Heuerman is dealing with a knee injury which could open the door for Fant. As TE is always a position that's a struggle at some point during the fantasy season, this is certainly news to pay attention to.

Broncos RB Royce Freeman (shoulder) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Freeman is good to go for a so-so matchup with the Jaguars. He's startable as an RB3/flex given his pretty stable workload.

Broncos RB Royce Freeman (shoulder) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Freeman is a decent flex start given his healthy touch count this season.

Broncos hope to "finally establish the true split" at running back

Charles Robinson on Twitter

Aug 01, 2019 · 5:38 PM EDT

Yahoo's NFL reporter Charles Robinson is currently traveling to training camps and just visited Denver. He tweeted out his take on the running back situation, "The Broncos are feeling really good about RB Royce Freeman right now. To the point that they are hoping to finally establish the true split-touch situation that they envisioned between Freeman and Phillip Lindsay last season. They feel like that plan is fully on track for 2019."

Fantasy Impact:

Royce Freeman will continue to get his shot this season and it looks like the team wants him to handle a good chunk of the lead back work. Phillip Lindsay outplayed him last season, but they like what they have in Freeman, at least as an early-down runner and he has improved this offseason according to reports.

Robinson tweeted his thoughts before the Broncos signed Theo Riddick, but Riddick isn't a threat to Freeman or Lindsay as a runner, as he'll continue his specialty as a receiver, which will likely cut into every running back's possible targets. In the end, the lack of faith in Lindsay to lead the team is a legitimate concern for him in fantasy, especially on a team that doesn't project to score many points per game.
