News: 5 days agoPatrick caught both of his targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 24-14 win over the Packers.

Spin: Patrick was on the field for a season-high 42 offensive snaps in Week 9, but his production was limited. The wide receiver was unable to capitalize on Jameson Williams (suspension) being unavailable for two contests, catching just two of three targets over the last two weeks. With Williams set to return in Week 10 against the Texans, Patrick's window in which to make a fantasy impact has likely closed.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: A solid, sure-handed receiver -- a 64% catch rate on his targets with only two drops in 2020 and 2021 combined -- Patrick had his past two seasons entirely wiped out due to injuries, 2022 by to a torn ACL suffered during an early preseason practice and 2023 by a torn Achilles suffered on a non-contact play almost a year to the day later. That fuels scads of questions about his ability to stay on the field, though his consistent contributions when he does might prove plenty helpful to the retooling Broncos. Patrick could threaten Marvin Mims Jr. for No. 2 receiver duties in the best-case scenario, which makes him a final-round dart throw worth monitoring during the preseason.
