Jets' Denzel Mims will be active versus Broncos

New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims will be active for the first time this season in Week 7 against the Denver Broncos on Sunday.

What It Means:

Mims will replace the disgruntled Elijah Moore on the active roster. He will compete with Braxton Berrios (back) and Jeff Sims for opportunities behind Garrett Wilson and Corey Davis. Last year, Mims caught 8 passes on 23 targets for 133 yards in 11 games.

The Broncos have the top rated defense in numberFire's schedule-adjusted metrics and they are allowing the second-fewest FanDuel points per game to the wide receiver position this season. Our models project Wilson to lead the Jets with 8.0 targets in Week 7 and Davis is second on the team at 5.1 targets. Mims isn't expected to be involved enough to matter.
