Broncos WR Marvin Mims Jr. Enters Concussion Protocol After Hit
BREAKING: The Denver Broncos have placed wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. in concussion protocol after a concerning hit during Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. This urgent update comes after Mims suffered a helmet-to-helmet collision while returning a kickoff with under five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
Details surrounding the incident reveal that Mims took a significant blow to the back of his helmet during a 26-yard kickoff return. He briefly lingered on the ground before returning to the sideline, raising immediate concerns about his condition. Earlier in the game, he had already taken a heavy shot from Cowboys cornerback Reddy Stewart during a 9-yard rush in the third quarter but had continued to play.
Mims’ entry into protocol is particularly impactful as he is a key player for the Broncos. Following a standout performance in Week 7, where he recorded six catches for 85 yards, Mims had a quieter outing against the Cowboys, managing only three carries for 18 yards with no receptions. However, he made a notable contribution in the return game, highlighted by a 46-yard return that set up a crucial field goal.
The Broncos delivered a decisive 44-24 victory over the Cowboys, showcasing their offensive prowess under head coach Sean Payton. However, Mims’ health is now a pressing concern for the team as they prepare for their upcoming matchups.
As the situation develops, fans and analysts alike will be closely monitoring Mims’ status. The Broncos have not yet provided a timeline for his potential return.
