Jalen Virgil Fantasy

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jalen Virgil came out of nowhere in the Week 10 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday for his first career reception, which just so happened to be a 66-yard touchdown strike from quarterback Russell Wilson in busted coverage from the Titans secondary. The 24-year-old from Appalachian State was mostly a return specialist in his college days, and he had yet to play a snap in the NFL with the Broncos before this game. It's safe to say that this was an anomaly with Jerry Jeudy (ankle) getting injured early in the game on Sunday. Fantasy managers shouldn't read anything into this fluky long TD. If Jeudy misses time with his injury, Kendall Hinton will likely operate as the Broncos' No. 2 receiver.

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jalen Virgil turned five targets into three catches for 83 yards during Saturday's preseason opener against the Dallas Cowboys. His biggest play was a 42-yard reception thrown by Brett Rypien. Virgil went undrafted out of Appalachian State, where he was solely a special teamer and returned three kickoffs for touchdowns over his final two NCAA seasons. He faces an uphill battle to make the team in 2022, but Saturday's performance did help his case.
