Jaleel McLaughlin plays just nine snaps in win

Relegated to a distinct background role, Jaleel McLaughlin saw minimal opportunity in Sunday's victory over Green Bay, logging just nine of the team's 68 offensive snaps. The 25-year-old was barely involved on the stat sheet, converting two carries into four yards while watching starter RJ Harvey command 46 snaps.

Fantasy Impact

The heavy workload disparity cements McLaughlin's current status as a pure insurance option with no standalone fantasy viability. He will look to carve out a role in Week 16 when the Broncos host the Jaguars.

Jaleel McLaughlin goes for 31 total yards in win

Jaleel McLaughlin ran four times for 22 yards and caught his only target for nine yards in the Broncos' 24-17 win over Las Vegas.

Fantasy Impact

McLaughlin took a backseat yet again to RJ Harvey. He's a worthy stash as a handcuff for those who roster Harvey, but that's about where his value ends at this point in time.

Jaleel McLaughlin totals 30 yards Sunday

Jaleel McLaughlin rushed the ball six times for 24 yards and caught one pass for six yards in Sunday night's 27-26 OT win over the Washington Commanders.

Fantasy Impact

McLaughlin looked okay through his limited work on Sunday. He totaled 30 yards on his seven touches, but he wasn't able to do much in the passing game to supplement his fantasy total. His efficiency was notably higher than rookie RJ Harvey's on the ground in this matchup, however, which could be something that affects the distribution of work in this backfield moving forward.

Jaleel McLaughlin finds end zone Sunday

Jaleel McLaughlin rushed the ball six times for 19 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-19 win over the Kansas City Chiefs.

Fantasy Impact

McLaughlin saw a bit more work than usual on Sunday with J.K. Dobbins (foot) out of the lineup for Denver. He was able to get into the end zone on one of his six carries, but he wasn't able to do much outside of that and ended with an underwhelming fantasy total. He won't be relevant moving forward with rookie RJ Harvey expected to be the primary beneficiary of Dobbins' absence.

Jaleel McLaughlin (healthy scratch) ruled out on Thursday

Jaleel McLaughlin (healthy scratch) has been ruled out for the Broncos' Thursday night game against the Raiders.

Fantasy Impact

McLaughlin will miss yet another game as the Broncos see no need to elevate him to the active gameday roster. RJ Harvey will once again serve as the primary backup to J.K. Dobbins, and Tyler Badie will fill in with an occasional role.
