Draws high praise from coach
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said Fant had the "most spectacular camp of anybody" following the team's offseason program, Brady Henderson of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The Seahawks received Fant from Denver in the Russell Wilson trade earlier this offseason, and he seems to already be making a strong first impression with the coaching staff. The 2019 first-round pick posted 68 catches for 670 yards and four touchdowns last season while catching passes from Teddy Bridgewater and Drew Lock. Lock will compete with Geno Smith to start for the Seahawks in 2022, and neither quarterback should be considered an upgrade. Nevertheless, Fant has an opportunity to be a…read more

Gets fifth-year option
The Seahawks picked up the fifth-year option on Fant's rookie contract Tuesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Analysis: The 2019 first-round pick was part of the March trade that sent Russell Wilson to the Broncos. While Fant's prospects for 2022 partially hinge on Drew Lock, another part of the package received by the Seahawks, improving or the team finding a better quarterback, there's a good chance the 24-year-old tight end will have more than one year to figure things out in Seattle. The fifth-year option is for a fully guaranteed $6.85 million, a reasonable figure from the team's point of view even if Fant…read more

Part of Wilson deal
The Broncos dealt Fant, quarterback Drew Lock, defensive end Shelby Harris and five draft picks to the Seahawks for Russell Wilson and a fourth-round pick Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: With the move, Fant potentially will have some familiarity with the potential starting quarterback in his new locale, having played with Lock in each of his three seasons to date. Overall, Fant has 170 catches and 10 touchdowns in 47 career games while racking up at least 500 yards each year. The 2019 first-rounder should slot in as the Seahawks' top tight end in 2022.

One catch in season finale
Fant caught one of two targets for 16 yards in Saturday's 28-24 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Fant turned in his lowest reception total of the season Saturday, but he still finished the campaign with a respectable 68-670-4 receiving line. The tight end talent is undeniable, but Denver's weak quarterback often made him difficult to rely on for steady production. The 24-year-old has one year remaining on his rookie contract, but it may take an upgrade at the quarterback position for him to raise his production and secure a long-term extension before he reaches free agency.

Approaches finale minus designation
Fant (quadriceps) doesn't have an injury designation for Saturday's game against the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Fant received clearance for the season finale after practicing fully Thursday after he had been listed as a limited participant on the Broncos' initial two Week 18 reports. The tight end is coming off an impressive 6-92-1 receiving performance in the Broncos' Week 17 loss to the Chargers, but he could be in store for a reduction in the seven targets he saw in the previous contest now that starting wideouts Jerry Jeudy and Tim Patrick have been cleared to play following one-game stints on the…read more

Limited at Wednesday's practice
Fant (quadriceps) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Fant was also listed as a limited on Tuesday's estimated practice report after presumably picking up the injury while catching six of seven targets for 92 yards and a touchdown during the Week 17 loss to the Chargers. The 24-year-old could avoid an injury designation for Saturday's matchup with the Chiefs if he's able to practice fully Thursday.

Limited by quad issue
Fant was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report due to a quadriceps injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: While Denver had two of its three starting wideouts, Jerry Jeudy (illness) and Tim Patrick (illness), on the reserve/COVID-19 list last week, Fant took on an expanded role in the passing attack in the team's 34-13 loss to the Chargers. The tight end finished with six receptions for 92 yards and a touchdown on seven targets, with the yardage total just five off his season-best mark. In the aftermath of the busy game, Fant is apparently banged up, but his listing as a limited participant offers…read more

Big day in loss
Fant caught six of seven targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: He was the Broncos' leading receiver on the afternoon, although his five-yard TD late in the fourth quarter did little but boost his fantasy production. Fant has set new career highs in catches (67) and touchdowns (four) this season, and he needs only 20 more receiving yards in Week 18 against Kansas City to reach a new personal best in that category as well.

Catches three passes in loss
Fant secured three of four targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 17-13 loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: Fant's underwhelming season continued Week 16, as the tight end failed to produce a fantasy-friendly line. Notably, Fant hasn't found the end zone since Week 6, the first time the Broncos played the Raiders. The Denver passing game has been ineffective for the majority of the season, and it was more of the same with Drew Lock starting under center. Fant and the Broncos will visit the Chargers in Week 17, but the 6-foot-4, 249-pound tight end will be difficult to trust in fantasy lineups.

Produces against Bengals
Fant recorded five receptions on six targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 15-10 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Fant led the team with 5 receptions and finished behind only Albert Okwuegbunam in receiving yards. He did the majority of his damage on big plays, highlighted by a 28-yard gain early in the second quarter that came primarily after the catch. Notably, Fant produced with both Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) and Drew Lock under center, so he may be able to carry this strong performance into a Week 16 matchup against Las Vegas regardless of who is under center. In addition, Fant has shown a safe…read more

Catches four passes in win
Fant caught all four of his targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 38-10 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Fant's 51 receiving yards were a team high, though it was Denver's No. 2 tight end Albert Okwuegbunam who had the better fantasy day. Fant played on 50 offensive snaps, while Okwuegbunam was in on 38. The latter, however, found the end zone on a four-yard catch late in the game. Like the rest of Denver's pass catchers, Fant has been underwhelming for several weeks, and he hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 6. The 6-foot-4, 249-pounder will be hard to trust down the stretch, starting with a…read more

Posts 33 yards in loss
Fant caught all four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 22-9 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: Javonte Williams (102 rushing yards and 76 receiving yards) shouldered the load on offense, resulting in lackluster outputs from the majority of Denver's receiving unit. Fant was providing some fantasy value earlier in the season, but the tight end has seen his production drop off of late, as he's averaging 3.8 receptions and 30.2 receiving yards over his last five contests. The 23-year-old will attempt to bounce back in a favorable matchup against the Lions next Sunday.

Three catches in win
Fant caught three of four targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 28-13 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: While the yardage was poor, Fant tied for the team lead in receptions with Javonte Williams, and he might have had a more appealing fantasy performance if depth tight end Eric Saubert hadn't vultured a one-yard TD in the fourth quarter. Fant has caught multiple passes in every game he's played this season, but he might need to be more productive in Week 13 against Kansas City.

Catches five passes in loss
Fant caught five of six targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Fant played the most snaps at tight end as the Broncos' No. 1 option at the position, but it was his backup Albert Okwuegbunam who led the team in receiving Sunday. Overall, Fant has been a disappointment for fantasy managers hoping for a breakout year for the 23-year-old. Over the past two games, he has also seen his snap percentage drop to 78 percent after being 90 percent or above for the four weeks prior. This is likely a function of Okwuegbunam's increased involvement on offense. The…read more

Activated from COVID list
Denver activated Fant (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
Analysis: Fant, who was placed on the list Nov. 2 and missed Sunday's win over the Cowboys, will rejoin the Broncos for practice Wednesday and is in line to return to the lineup this weekend against the Eagles. In eight games this season, Fant has logged 37 catches (on 53 targets) for 320 yards and three touchdowns, numbers that make him a viable weekly fantasy option at tight end.

Nearing return to practice
Coach Vic Fangio said Monday that Fant (illness) is close to clearing the league's COVID-19 protocols, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Fangio is optimistic that Fant will be able to rejoin the Broncos on Tuesday, but he has "one last hurdle" to clear before he's activated. The tight end has been on the reserve/COVID-19 list since Nov. 2 after testing positive for the virus, but it appears as though he has a good chance to return to action Sunday against the Eagles.

Not available Sunday
Fant (illness) won't play in Sunday's game at Dallas, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Analysis: As predicted by coach Vic Vangio on Friday, Fant was unable to make his way through league protocols and be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list after testing positive for the virus Tuesday. He'll thus yield primary TE duties to Albert Okwuegbunam (knee), while Eric Saubert and Andrew Beck are on hand to step in at the position.

Not expected to play
Coach Vic Fangio believes Fant (illness) won't come off the reserve/COVID-19 list in time to suit up Sunday in Dallas, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Denver has one of the league's more intriguing backup tight ends in Albert Okwuegbunam, but he's questionable himself due to a knee injury, so Eric Saubert could be pushed into a featured role come Sunday. Considering Fant is vaccinated, there's a good chance he'll be able to return in time for the Broncos' Week 10 home game against the Eagles.

Not yet ruled out for Week 9
Fant (illness), who landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday following a positive test for the virus, could still have a chance to play Sunday in Dallas, George Stoia III of The Denver Gazette reports.
Analysis: According to Stoia, Fant is vaccinated, which gives him a chance for a quicker return than an unvaccinated player, who would be forced to remain away from the team for at least 10 days following a positive test. Fant has continued to test positive since entering quarantine, so he'll still need to submit two negative test results at least 24 hours apart and display no symptoms of the virus before he's eligible to rejoin the Broncos. The team should have more clarity heading into Sunday whether…read more

Tests positive for COVID-19
Fant's placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday was the result of a positive test for the virus, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Thus, Fant will need to produce a pair of negative tests 24 hours apart in order to be eligible to play Sunday at Dallas. He has time to do just that, but the Broncos likely are preparing for him to be sidelined for at least one game. If Fant doesn't clear league protocols in time to suit up Week 9, the Broncos will turn to Albert Okwuegbunam to take on a bigger role, with Eric Saubert and Andrew Beck also in the mix at tight end.

Lands on COVID-19 list
Fant (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Fant has served as the Broncos' No. 1 tight end this season, recording 37 catches on 53 targets for 320 yards and three touchdowns in eight games. It's unclear if he tested positive for COVID-19 and whether or not he's vaccinated, two big factors in determining when he might be able to rejoin his teammates. If he takes a seat Sunday in Dallas, Fant will yield top TE duties to Albert Okwuegbunam, with Eric Saubert and Andrew Beck also factoring in.

Catches two passes
Fant secured two of four targets for eight yards in Sunday's 17-10 win over Washington.
Analysis: Fant's four targets were tied for the team high, but the tight end had an overall tough day at the office. His eight yards were a season low as the Broncos squeezed out a win in a low-scoring affair. Fellow tight end Albert Okwuegbunam made his return to the field and played 49 percent of Denver's offensive snaps, compared to Fant's 77 percent share. With Okwuegbunam and wideout Jerry Jeudy finally back, Fant may have a difficult time providing consistent production. The 23-year-old will have…read more

Five catches in defeat
Fant brought in five of seven targets for 39 yards in the Broncos' 17-14 loss to the Browns on Thursday night.
Analysis: Fant drew even with Courtland Sutton for second in receptions on the night for Denver and also checked in as the runner-up, albeit a distant one, in receiving yards. The third-year tight end now has 14 receptions on 18 targets over the last two games, a level of volume he and fantasy managers will hope persists in Week 8 against Washington a week from Sunday.

Cleared for Thursday night
Fant (foot) practiced fully Wednesday and doesn't have an injury designation for Thursday's game in Cleveland, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Analysis: Fant is good to go on a short week and will be coming off his best performance of the season, as he delivered a 9-97-1 line on 11 targets while the Broncos were forced into catchup mode for most of last Sunday's loss to the Raiders. Another healthy dose of targets should be headed Fant's way Week 7 regardless of the game script, though he may have to make do with Drew Lock at quarterback rather than Teddy Bridgewater. After being listed as a limited participant throughout the week while tending…read more

Fant (foot) was limited at Tuesday's walkthrough, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Fant remained limited on the Broncos' second injury report of Week 7 prep. Meanwhile, Teddy Bridgewater also has had a cap on his practice reps, and there's no guarantee he'll be available Thursday at Cleveland. Fant is coming off a three-game stretch in which he earned 90-plus percent of the offensive snaps each time on his way to 18 catches (on 25 targets) for 163 yards and two TDs. Assuming he's cleared for Thursday's contest, he'll look to keep it going with Bridgewater under center, which…read more

Limited on Week 7 practice report
Denver lists Fant as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report due to a foot injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Fant feasted in garbage time of Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Raiders, with much of his 9-97-1 stat line on a season-high 11 targets coming in the second half, when the Broncos were forced to lean heavily on the passing game. The tight end looks like he may have hurt his foot at some point along the way, but the fact that he's being listed as limited on the Broncos' first Week 7 injury report suggests he's on a path to play Thursday in Cleveland.

Big game against Vegas
Fant caught nine of 11 targets for 97 yards and one touchdown against Las Vegas on Sunday.
Analysis: The Broncos offense struggled for much of the game, and Fant didn't really get into high gear until the second half, but this box score is elite tight-end production and the level of play Fant might be more regularly capable of if the Broncos keep sending the targets his way. After allowing five sacks and an incredible 17 quarterback hits against Vegas, the Broncos need to do a much better job of managing the pass rush for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, and the imminent return of Jerry Jeudy…read more

Analysis: Fant played on 97 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps, marking a season high for the veteran tight end. With so many injuries to Denver's pass catchers, Fant has seen his playing time increase week over week. The 23-year-old didn't see his first target in Sunday's game until the fourth quarter despite the Broncos trailing the Steelers for most of the contest.

Finds end zone in Sunday's loss
Fant caught six of 10 targets for 46 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: The tight end led Denver in targets and receptions on the afternoon -- in fact, no other Bronco caught more than three passes -- but Fant's longest grab went for only 14 yards. He did account for the team's only points on a three-yard toss from Teddy Bridgewater in the second quarter, but with Bridgewater now dealing with a concussion, the Broncos' passing game will be a big question mark heading into a Week 5 clash with the Steelers.

Quiet in win
Fant secured two receptions on three targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Fant was not a big part of the game plan in Week 3 as the Broncos cruised to victory over the hapless Jets. His three targets were tied for third most on a day when quarterback Teddy Bridgewater threw 25 passes. With wide receiver KJ Hamler going down with a knee injury Sunday, it is likely that the veteran tight end could see a bump in his usage going forward if Hamler is forced to miss time. The Broncos are already without Jerry Jeudy, so Denver's pass-catching group is getting thinner. The…read more

Analysis: Fant logged a pair of limited sessions to start the week, but his status for Week 3 never really was in doubt. The 2019 first-round pick is looking to make the leap into the upper echelon of pass catchers at the tight end position, and he's off to a solid start, with 10 catches for 95 yards and a touchdown through two games.

Fant (ankle) will be a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: For the second day in a row, Fant will have his reps capped while he manages an ankle injury, but the Broncos have yet to suggest the issue is anything that will prevent him from playing Sunday against the Jets. Ideally, Fant will upgrade to full participation in practice Friday, which should clear the way for him to enter the weekend without an injury designation.

Finds end zone
Fant recorded four receptions on six targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Jaguars.
Analysis: Fant was the team's second-most targeted receiver in the absence of Jerry Jeudy (ankle). The majority of his work was limited to short areas of the field, and he managed only 5.5 yards per target as a result. However, he found the end zone from 14 yards away -- it was his only catch that went for double-digit yards -- to prop up his production. Fant should remain heavily involved in the offense in another exploitable matchup in Week 3 against the Jets.

Fant recorded six receptions on eight targets for 62 yards in the Broncos' Week 1 victory against the Giants on Sunday.

Fant served primarily as a target in the short areas of the field for Teddy Bridgewater, though he did manage to record a 25-yard reception.

Returns to full practice
Fant (knee) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: With that, Fant is slated to be ready to play against the Giants in Sunday's season opener, with Teddy Bridgewater getting the start at QB for Denver. Fant, along with top wideouts Courtland Sutton and Jerry Jeudy, thus is in line to be a key weapon in the Broncos' passing attack out of the gate this season. In that context, an uptick from Fant's 62-673-3 stat line (in 15 games) from last year seems plausible in 2021.

Nursing leg issue
Fant didn't participate at Tuesday's practice due to a leg injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: The specifics of the issue remain unclear, though coach Vic Fangio indicated it isn't believed to be a serious concern. Fant seemingly picked up the injury during last Saturday's preseason matchup with the Seahawks, when he wasn't targeted in 21 offensive snaps. Even if the 23-year-old makes a quick return to practice, he may not see much, if any, action during Saturday's preseason finale versus the Rams.

Quiet in limited role
Fant wasn't targeted in 21 offensive snaps in Saturday's 30-3 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Fant was a non-factor in Week 2 of the preseason, but the 23-year-old tight end figures to be a key component of the Broncos' passing attack in 2021. According to Nick Kosmider of The Athletic, Fant likely will be used in creative ways and run routes deeper down field, as well. The 6-foot-4, 249-pounder will compete for targets with the likes of Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy and KJ Hamler in the passing game, so it may be tough for him to find consistent production in the Denver offense.…read more

Looks to make impact in variety of ways
Based on what he's seen early on in training camp, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic suggests that Fant "is likely to be used in more creative ways" during his second campaign working in Pat Shurmur's offense.
Analysis: Fant, who recorded a team-high 62 catches (on 93 targets) for 673 yards and three TDs in 15 games last season, is going to be a big part of Denver's passing attack, regardless of who the team's QB is, an outcome that's pending an ongoing competition between Teddy Bridgewater and Drew Lock. Per the report, getting Fant -- who averaged 10.9 yards per reception last season, which was down from his 14.1 mark as a rookie -- "involved deeper down the field appears to be a priority" early in training…read more

Starting QB TBD
Though Fant remains firmly atop the Broncos' tight end depth chart, it remains to be seen whether Teddy Bridgewater or Drew Lock will be the team's Week 1 starter at QB, ESPN's Jeff Legwold reports.
Analysis: In his third season as a pro, Fant is being counted on to be a big part of the Broncos' passing game, regardless of who earns the team's starting signal caller job. The 2019 first-rounder logged 62 catches (on 93 targets) for 673 yards and three TDs in 15 games last season, numbers that the 6-foot-4, 249-pounder will look to eclipse this season in an aerial attack that should be more balanced thanks to the return of Courtland Sutton from a knee injury, which bolsters a wideout corps that also…read more

Snags team-leading 62 passes
Fant finished the 2020 season with 62 receptions for 673 yards and three touchdowns on 93 targets over his 15 appearances with the program.
Analysis: Fant became more of a short-range, volume target under first-year offensive coordinator Gary Kubiak than he had been while playing in the Rich Scangarello-led offense in 2019. The tight end averaged 4.1 catches per game in 2020, but his yards per reception fell by more than three, dropping from 14.1 in 2019 to 10.9 in 2020. Fant's production fell off dramatically after injuring his ankle Week 4 against the Jets, and though he only ended up missing one game on the season, he never seemed to…read more

Played through injury all year
Fant said Monday that he never got '100 percent' healthy in 2020 after injuring his ankle against the Jets in Week 4, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Analysis: Fant only officially missed one game due to his ankle injury, but as evidenced by the fact that he was never able to surpass the 81 receiving yards he logged Week 1, it appears that the 23-year-old tight end never got back to full form. Still, Fant's 62 catches (93 targets) for 673 yards and three scores through 15 games paint the picture of a successful sophomore campaign, especially considering the context of Denver's offensive woes and how slowly young tight ends usually develop. Given that…read more

Six grabs Sunday
Fant caught six of nine targets for 65 yards in Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: The tight end is having a strong close to his second NFL campaign, hauling in 14 catches for 133 yards and a TD on 20 targets over the last two games. Fant will look to keep his momentum rolling in Week 17's clash with the Raiders.

Dominates target share Week 15
Fant reeled in eight of 11 targets for 68 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 48-19 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: After being forced to exit last Sunday's win against Carolina in the first quarter because of an illness, Fant got back on track with a lucrative Week 15 performance. The second-year tight end attracted greater than double the targets of Denver's second-busiest option, Jerry Jeudy, while also racking up more catches and receiving yards than the entire receiving corps combined. Fant proved capable of snapping a 10-game scoring drought during the loss to Buffalo. Now, he shifts focus to a…read more

Returns to full practice
Fant (illness) practiced fully Wednesday, putting him on track to play Saturday against the Bills, Troy Renck of ABC Denver7 reports.
Analysis: Fant was listed as a non-participant on Denver's practice estimate Tuesday, but he seems to have fully recovered the stomach ailment that forced him out early in last week's win over the Panthers. He draws a favorable Week 15 matchup versus a Buffalo defense that has allowed the most catches (75) and second-most yards (833) to tight ends this season, along with seven touchdowns.

Should be fine for Week 15 action
Coach Vic Fangio said that Fant (illness) is "fine" ahead of Wednesday's practice, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Analysis: Fant would ideally practice in full capacity Wednesday to put to rest any concerns about his health, but regardless, the tight end looks like he'll be ready to go once Saturday's game against the Bills arrives. He played just five snaps in last week's win over the Panthers before exiting due to what he believes was a case of the stomach flu.

No 'reps' Tuesday
Fant (illness) is listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: Fant made an early exit from Sunday's game at Carolina after coming down with an illness. He remained in Charlotte until Monday, when he tested negative for COVID-19 and was cleared to return to Denver. Still, Fant wouldn't have taken the field Tuesday if the Broncos had held a session. He'll aim to do so at some point before Saturday's contest against the Bills, but if Fant eventually isn't able to suit up, Denver will turn to Nick Vannett and Troy Fumagalli at tight end.

Traveling back to Denver
Fant (illness) returned negative PRC/POC tests for COVID-19 on Monday and will travel back to Denver, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Analysis: Fant exited Sunday's win over the Panthers before drawing a target. Per Klis, Fant began to feel ill early, prompting the Broncos to take precautions for COVID-19. Coach Vic Fangio said after the game that Fant's illness may have been food poisoning, and now that he's tested negative for two straight days it looks like the second-year tight end will avoid a stint on the COVID list.

Analysis: Once Fant, who wasn't targeted prior to his exit from the contest, was out of action, Nick Vannett and Troy Fumagalli handled Denver's tight end duties. Per Legwold, Fant tested negative for COVID-19 on Sunday, but he'll remain in Charlotte on Sunday night and return to Denver on Monday if he tests negative again.

Leads team in receiving
Fant converted a team-high seven targets into four receptions for 57 yards in Sunday's 22-16 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: Fant continues to blossom as a receiving threat while slowly shedding the "bust" label that followed him after being selected in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft. The 22-year-old still struggles getting open in the end zone -- he has just two touchdowns through 12 games -- but he is consistently churning out high-floor, low-ceiling performances (excluding last week's bizarre contest in which Denver was pressed into starting a practice-squad WR at QB).

Fant reeled in one of his two targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: The tight end recorded Denver's only reception of the afternoon, as Kendall Hinton struggled in his NFL debut. To be fair, the young signal-caller joined Denver's practice squad Nov. 4 as a wide receiver and had little time to prepare for his first start, but that doesn't help fantasy managers who were depending on a decent outing from Fant.

Hauls in four passes in win
Fant caught four of five targets for 55 yards during Sunday's 20-13 win over Miami.
Analysis: Fant kick-started a key, clock-draining drive midway through the fourth quarter when he took a short pass at the sideline and broke back over the middle of the field for a 29-yard catch-and-run. The play helped Fant reach his highest yardage mark since Week 2, and his 33 yards after the catch were his third most this season. Denver found a groove Sunday with Drew Lock booting out and finding Fant and fellow tight end Nick Vannett in the flat. Look for that to continue in Week 12 against a…read more

Fant (ribs) is
Analysis: The athletic tight end ran the gamut of practice participation during the week, finishing up with a full session Friday that supported the notion of active status Sunday. That's now official, meaning Fant once again will serve as the primary tight end option against a Dolphins defense that's surrendered a 36-343-4 line to the position this season.

If Fant in fact plays, it's unsettled who he'll catch passes from, as Drew Lock (ribs) is questionable, and Brett Rypien likely would start under center if Lock can't go.

Battling rib injury
Fant's absence from Wednesday's practice was attributed to a rib injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Analysis: While it's at least encouraging that Fant isn't dealing with an aggravation of the ankle injury that has bothered him in recent weeks, his inability to practice on even a limited basis to begin Week 11 is somewhat concerning. Nick Vannett is currently the only healthy tight end for Denver, so he could be in line for a substantial workload if Fant's injury is serious enough to sideline him.

Grabs three passes
Fant caught three of seven targets for 18 yards during Sunday's loss in Las Vegas.
Analysis: Fant's 18 yards Sunday were a season, low and the sophomore tight end has not topped 50 yards in a game since Week 2. He's averaging just 8.8 yards per catch during that same span, although part of that can be attributed to offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur's scheme. Fant seems to run a ton of quick hitches and routes that have him finding the soft spots in zones. The fact remains, however, that he and Drew Lock seem to miscommunicate on a shot downfield at least once per game. Late in Sunday's…read more

Analysis: Fangio said that he expects Fant to be "OK," a notion that's backed up by the fact the second-year pro was able to return to Sunday's game after limping to the locker room in the first quarter. Fant did seem to be hampered by the injury upon his return, however, as he ended the day with just three catches for 45 yards against an Atlanta defense that has struggled to cover opposing tight ends all season.

Analysis: Fant was limited in practice to begin last week before he was cleared to return from a one-game absence for Sunday's loss to the Chiefs. Though he handled a normal workload in Week 7, he turned in a rather modest outing, catching three of seven targets for 38 yards. Assuming he escaped the contest without any setbacks to his ankle, Fant should upgrade to full participation in practice by Thursday or Friday before suiting up this weekend against the Chargers.

Jake Butt (61 percent offensive snap share), Nick Vannett (45 percent) and Albert Okwuegbunam (38 percent) essentially worked in a timeshare at tight end in the Week 6 win over New England, but Fant should dominate the snaps at the position now that he's healthy again.

That being said, the 22-year-old was ruled out prior to Monday's contest before the game was eventually postponed, so this shouldn't come as a major surprise.

Given that Fant's limited activity in practice matched his listing from Wednesday, it's unlikely the tight end did much to change his questionable status in Fangio's mind.

Analysis: If there's a bit of a silver lining for Fant it's that he doesn't appear to have suffered a season-ending ankle injury during Thursday's win over the Jets. An elongated absence is hardly a consolation prize considering the Broncos are practically devoid of healthy pass catchers with Courtland Sutton (knee) on IR and Jerry Jeudy banged up entering Thursday's matchup.

Ankle injury downplayed
Fant sustained a "minor" ankle injury during Thursday's win over the Jets, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Fant avoiding a serious injury is a piece of much-needed good news for a Denver team that's already lost numerous star players for multiple weeks, and some for the season. The starting tight end was carted off the field in the second half of Thursday's win, and he was quickly ruled out to return after being examined in the locker room. Fant will now get the benefit of an extra three days of rest before the Broncos head to New England in Week 5.

Won't return Thursday
Fant (ankle) is ruled out to return to Thursday's game against the Jets, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.
Analysis: Fant was carted off the field in the third quarter and immediately taken to the locker room for examination. In addition to the loss of Fant, Denver's offense is now without all of Drew Lock (shoulder), KJ Hamler (hamstring) and Phillip Lindsay (toe) for the remainder of Thursday's contest, with Courtland Sutton (knee - ACL) also already having been lost for the year. The second-year tight end's first chance to retake the field will come Oct. 11 at New England.

Carted off field Thursday
Fant is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Jets due to an ankle injury, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Analysis: Fant had to be carted off the field in the third quarter after taking a blow to the lower leg. Rookie second-round pick KJ Hamler (hamstring) has also been ruled out to return Thursday, and the Broncos are already without top wideout Courtland Sutton (knee - ACL) for the year. Fant secured five of six targets for 35 yards before exiting Thursday's game.

Top target in loss to Bucs
Fant hauled in five of a team-high 10 targets for 46 receiving yards during Sunday's 28-10 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Though his two-game scoring streak was snapped by the Buccaneers, the second-year tight end tied a career high with his 10 targets. This was certainly not an ideal matchup for Fant, as Tampa Bay entered Sunday holding the longest active streak of games without a TE touchdown allowed (dating back to Week 12 of last year). An upcoming Thursday night matchup against the Jets may help get Fant back in the end zone; New York has already surrendered three receiving TDs to opposing TEs.

Registers another TD
Fant corralled four of five targets for 57 receiving yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: The second-year tight end was a handful for the Steelers defense, with three of his receptions going for 14-plus yards on the afternoon. The second of those plays was a 20-yard TD catch from backup QB Jeff Driskel, and Fant immediately followed it up with a catch on the two-point conversion to get Denver within three points of Pittsburgh. After a disappointing conclusion to 2019 in which he only picked up four or more receptions once over his final six appearances, Fant is red hot to kick off…read more

Breaks off long catch, TD Week 1
Fant corralled five of his six targets for 81 receiving yards and a touchdown during Monday's 16-14 loss to Tennessee.
Analysis: The second-year tight end made his touches count against the Titans, collecting 15-plus receiving yards or a touchdown on four of his five receptions. Fant demonstrated big-play ability as a rookie in racking up 14.1 yards per catch, second only to New Orleans' Jared Cook (16.4) among NFL tight ends last year. The key to Fant unlocking a magical fantasy season, however, may come via the touchdown, as he collected just three last year on 66 targets. Week 1's outcome is encouraging in that…read more

Comfortable in new offense
Fant has added muscle and is embracing offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur's new offense, which the sophomore tight end describes as more nuanced and able to exploit mismatches, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.
Analysis: Much has been made of what new weaponry -- Melvin Gordon, Jerry Jeudy, and KJ Hamler -- can do for the Broncos offense and Drew Lock's first full season. But, with a year of development, Fant should have every opportunity to be the second major threat in the passing game behind Courtland Sutton. Fant finished second on the team in receiving yards (562), targets (66) and touchdowns (three) as a rookie. However, he faded down the stretch and -- despite a monster 113-yard performance against…read more

Finishes year with 550 yards
Fant caught 40 of 66 passes for 562 yards and three touchdowns in 2019. He lost 12 yards on three carries and lost a fumble.
Analysis: It was an uneven rookie campaign for the 2019 first-round pick, as he struggled at times to track the deep ball and did not establish himself as a blocker. Still, Fant showed some serious upside as a catch-and-run target with a team-leading up 388 yards after catch. His 14.1 yards per catch this season ranked behind only New Orleans' Jared Cook among tight ends. If Fant is able to be more consistent with fellow now-sophomore quarterback Drew Lock in 2020, his existing big-play ability could…read more

Held to 10 yards
Fant caught both of his targets for a total of 10 yards during Sunday's 27-17 win over Detriot.
Analysis: Both of Fant's catches came within the first 20 minutes of the game. The dinged-up rookie played a relatively low percentage of snaps, 41 of 71, and was unable to get downfield with Detroit playing a lot of deep zone coverages. Fant has been reliant on the deep ball this season, as 52.8 percent of his 373 yards over the past seven games came on just four plays. If he's able to round back into shape in time for the season finale, he couldn't ask for a better matchup. The Raiders have surrendered…read more

Ready to go Week 16
Fant (shoulder) is active for Sunday's Week 16 tilt against the Lions.
Analysis: The rookie tight end managed to log limited practices throughout the week and now will enjoy active status for a favorable matchup. Fant has worked well with rookie quarterback Drew Lock during the latter's last two starts, bringing in six of seven targets for 169 yards and a touchdown over that span.

Week 16 status in question
Fant (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Analysis: Fant missed some time during the Broncos' Week 15 loss at Kansas City with a right shoulder injury. Afterward, X-rays were returned negative, and coach Vic Fangio told Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic that Fant "should be fine." Fant maintained limited practices throughout the week, but with a 'questionable' tag for Sunday, his status for Week 16 won't be confirmed until 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Maintains limited activity
Fant (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Though Fant's reps were capped for a second day in a row, the Broncos are optimistic he'll be ready to play when Sunday's game against the Lions rolls around. Ideally, Fant would eliminate ambiguity about his status by practicing fully Friday, a development that would likely allow him to enter the weekend without an injury designation. Fant ranks second among all qualified tight ends this season with 14.8 yards per reception, but his relatively low volume -- he's only exceeded five targets…read more

Still tending to shoulder issue
Fant (shoulder) was limited at practice Wednesday, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.
Analysis: Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic previously relayed that coach Vic Fangio said Fant's shoulder "will be fine," but the fact that the tight end was limited to begin Week 16 prep suggests his status will warrant monitoring heading into Sunday's game against the Lions. The shoulder injury resulted in Fant's brief removal in the Broncos' Week 15 loss to the Colts before he was cleared to re-enter the contest. He finished the game with two catches for 56 yards on three targets while playing 46 percent…read more

Makes big fourth-down conversion
Fant caught two of three targets for 56 yards during Sunday's 23-3 loss in Kansas City. He injured his right shoulder during the contest, but X-rays were negative and he "should be fine," Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Broncos were completely off-kilter on offense during the first half when, facing fourth and short, Fant blocked the edge and then released upfield for a 43-yard reception to set up Denver's lone score of the game. Fant hasn't always been consistent, but his big-play ability has been undeniable this season. His 15.7 yards per catch ranks best among tight ends in the league. He's now nursing foot, hip and shoulder injuries, but he remains an intriguing play down the stretch as the season's…read more

Returns to action
Fant, who was forced out of Sunday's game against the Chiefs with a shoulder injury, was later able to return to the contest.
Analysis: This is great news for the Broncos, with the young tight end coming off a strong effort Week 14 and in line to be a key cog in the team's passing game down the stretch, health permitting.

Exits game with shoulder injury
Fant was forced out of Sunday's game against the Chiefs with a shoulder injury, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Analysis: Fant approached Week 15 action nursing foot and hip issues, and now a shoulder injury can be added to his list of aches and pains. Prior to his exit from Sunday's game, the tight end caught his only target for 43 yards.

Suits up Sunday
Fant (foot/hip) is listed as active for Sunday's road game against the Chiefs.
Analysis: Fant is out there if you need him this week and as long as he avoids any in-game setbacks, he'll be in a position to continue to make an impact in Denver's passing attack in wintry weather conditions in Week 15. The No. 20 pick in the 2019 NFL Draft is coming off a strong effort last Sunday against the Texans, in which he caught all four of his targets for 113 yards and a TD.

Analysis: Fant's practice reps have been restricted this week while he manages the two injuries, with coach Vic Fangio saying the rookie could "possibly" be limited Sunday but is trending in the right direction to play, per Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com. Fortunately, the Broncos kick off among the early wave of games Sunday, leaving Fant's fantasy managers with some alternatives at their disposal in the event his condition unexpectedly takes a turn for the worse leading up to game day.

Analysis: Previous reports suggested that coach Vic Fangio was optimistic about the tight end's outlook for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, and his return to practice bolsters that. We'll revisit Fant's status Friday to see if he's listed as questionable on the Broncos' final Week 15 injury report, or if he heads into the weekend minus any sort of designation.

Tending to pair of injuries
Fant suffered a bruised foot Sunday at Houston and is also dealing with what coach Vic Fangio described as "hip irritation," Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.
Analysis: Before leaving Sunday's eventual win, Fant put his stamp on the game with the second 100-yard effort of his career. In the meantime, he's undergone X-rays, which came back negative, and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Monday that the rookie tight end's foot injury is minor. With a hip issue also in tow, Fant's practice reps could be impacted once the Broncos get back on the field for Week 15 prep, starting Wednesday.

Injury viewed as minor
The foot injury Fant sustained in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Texans is considered minor and isn't expected to cost him any additional game action, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The rookie tight end cleared the century mark in yardage for the second time this season in Sunday's victory, finishing with four grabs for 113 yards and a touchdown on four targets. His foot was stepped on during the contest and resulted in him getting carted off the field, but initial X-rays returned negative. No reports have surfaced suggesting Fant will require an MRI as a result of the injury, so he tentatively looks in line to maintain his usual starting role Week 15 in Kansas City.…read more

Analysis: On the plus side, the tight end's X-rays came up negative, which suggests that Fant has a chance to play next weekend against the Chiefs. Prior to his exit from Sunday's game, he caught all four of his targets for 113 yards and a TD.

Not on same page as Lock
Fant caught one of three targets for five yards during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: In fellow rookie Drew Lock's first career start, fans were right to be eager to see a glimpse of what the future could hold for Lock and Fant as a tandem. They'll have to keep waiting. The quarterback missed connecting with his tight end on a pair of big plays Sunday -- first, Fant did not fight back to the ball in the end zone and had a would-be touchdown knocked away in the first quarter. Later, he lost track of a deep shot down the sideline in the third quarter. It's fair to wonder, given…read more

Bottled up in Buffalo
Fant caught three of five targets for 14 yards during Sunday's 20-3 loss in Buffalo.
Analysis: Fant caught a quick 16-yard pass following a Justin Simmons interception to push the Broncos into Bills territory. Brandon Allen sailed a pass six plays later to cough the ball back up. The Broncos weren't much of a threat for the remainder of the game. The luster of Week 9's win over the Browns has all but worn off by now, and, though Fant has been targeted at least five times in four of his last five games and made some big plays, his value is limited by the Broncos' quarterback situation.…read more

Targeted 11 times in loss
Fant caught four of 11 targets for 60 yards during Sunday's 27-23 loss in Minnesota. He lost seven yards on two carries.
Analysis: Fant and Brandon Allen had some nice moments Sunday, with a 31-yard shot downfield on the opening possession and a clutch 11-yard completion over the middle to convert a fourth down on Denver's final drive. The issues came in the red zone, as Allen threw behind Fant for a red-zone interception just before halftime and the two were unable to link up on either of Allen's end-zone attempts to Fant on the team's final drive. Despite the misses, Fant appears to be trending upward, even with Tim…read more

Breaks out for career-best day
Fant caught three of four targets for 115 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Browns.
Analysis: The rookie tight end looked like the second coming of Rob Gronkowski on his 75-yard TD reception in the second quarter, catching a pass from Brandon Allen as he came across the middle and then steamrolling multiple Cleveland defenders before racing down the sideline to the end zone. Fant hadn't topped 37 yards in a game prior to Sunday's breakout, so don't assume he's emerged as a sure thing; however, he's seen 17 targets over the last three games and will have a much brighter fantasy outlook…read more
