Jaleel McLaughlin rushed for 72 yards on seven carries and caught three passes for 32 yards and a touchdown in Sunday’s 31-28 win over the Bears.
Fantasy Impact: With Javonte Williams exiting early due to injury, McLaughlin, more so than Samaje Perine, led the way for the Broncos’ backfield. The rookie running back eclipsed 100 yards of total offense and opened the scoring with an 18-yard TD grab in the first quarter. Should Williams be forced to miss any time beyond Week 4, this performance certainly thrusts McLaughlin into fantasy relevance. He should be a popular waiver claim during Week 5.
