Marvin Mims Jr. Avoids Serious Groin Injury, Set to Practice Monday for Broncos

Team testing eased concerns to keep him on schedule for the Sept. 7 opener.

Overview

  • Sean Payton called the update "good news" and said Mims is expected to rejoin team work at Monday's bonus practice.
  • Mims underwent an MRI and additional tests after leaving Wednesday's session, and the evaluations did not indicate a serious groin issue.
  • The Broncos say the third-year receiver should be on track for Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans in Denver.
  • A two-time Pro Bowler and 2024 first-team All-Pro returner, Mims led the NFL at 15.7 yards per punt return and logged 39 catches for 503 yards with six touchdowns last season.
  • His availability carries added weight as Denver plans a larger offensive role following the trade of Devaughn Vele, with Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin leading the receiver group.
