Payton: Coleman done a good job of earning touches

Key Points:

• Broncos coach Sean Payton praised Jonah Coleman's performance, noting his explosive touches and suggesting Coleman is favored to get more carries in Week 8, although the backfield remains a three-headed committee with JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey.
• Wide receiver Marvin Mims remains a focus for increased offensive touches, but his impact has been limited so far; he and Troy Franklin are competing for roles, with Mims showing more big-play potential.
• Cardinals' James Conner may return this season from a foot/ankle injury, but fantasy value is uncertain due to a crowded backfield including Jeremiyah Love, who is expected to practice soon after an ankle injury.
• Several NFL players have varying injury statuses: Packers' Matthew Golden is a DNP due to shoulder/foot issues, Panthers' Bryce Young is a full participant despite a minor knee injury, and Browns activated QB Dillon Gabriel from injured reserve but remains low on the depth chart.
• Raiders coach Klint Kubiak confirmed Kirk Cousins as the starting quarterback for Week 8, dismissing speculation of a change, while also noting rookie Fernando Mendoza will play at some point this season but without a set timeline.
