Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Misses Wednesday's practice
Waddle (chest) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice.
After being present for the session earlier in the day, according to Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com, Waddle was subsequently deemed to have been a non-participant after all. The wideout thus has two more opportunities to log practice reps ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs. If Waddle is limited or out this weekend, Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims (ankle, limited Wednesday) would be in line to see added Week 8 opportunities.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Spotted at practice Wednesday
Waddle (chest) was present for Wednesday's practice, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
The extent of Waddle's participation has yet to be revealed, but it's encouraging that he was with the team for Wednesday's session. Waddle is dealing with a chest injury that had him reported as uncertain to play this week as of early Wednesday. Things seem to be trending in the right direction, but Friday's injury report will give the firm answer on Waddle's status going into the big game against the Chiefs.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Uncertain to play Sunday
Waddle aggravated a previous chest injury during last week's 30-16 win over the Cardinals, and his status for Sunday's game against the Chiefs will be determined based on how he fares in practice this week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Waddle recorded four receptions for 48 yards on seven targets against Arizona before checking out of the game in the fourth quarter due to the lingering chest issue, which had limited his participation in two practices during Week 7 prep. The wideout's practice activity appears likely to be affected in Week 8, but the Broncos aren't yet counting him out from suiting up against the Chiefs.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Chest injury confirmed
Waddle didn't return to Sunday's 30-16 win over the Cardinals due to a chest injury, Parker Gabriel of the Denver Post reports.
Waddle went to the locker room in the fourth quarter, and the Broncos confirmed shortly before the end of the game that he was dealing with a chest injury. Sunday's injury could be an aggravation of the chest injury that bothered Waddle in practice leading up to the game. Waddle's likely to pop up on the injury report as the Broncos prepare for a Week 8 rematch with the Chiefs, who defeated Denver in Week 1. He finished with four catches for 48 yards on seven targets against the Cardinals.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Exits in fourth quarter
Waddle (undisclosed) headed to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Waddle had his practice reps limited leading up to the game due to a chest injury. He was grabbing at his chest/shoulder area prior to exiting, per Gabriel, suggesting Waddle may have aggravated the injury as he went to the ground to avoid a fumble on a botched reverse. Prior to getting hurt, Waddle caught four of seven targets for 48 yards.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Cleared for Week 7
Waddle (chest) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Arizona.
Waddle already confirmed that he'll play. He upgraded to full practice participation Friday after being limited earlier in the week. Waddle has a target share of 22 percent and an air-yardage share of 35 percent, but he's averaging just 38.0 receiving yards per game in a struggling Denver offense.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Expects to play Sunday
Waddle (chest) said he is good to go for Sunday's game at Arizona after being listed as a limited practice participant the previous two days, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
It remains to be seen if Waddle will duck an injury designation, but he left no doubt that he expects to play.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Logs limited practice Thursday
Waddle (chest) remained a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
With back-to-back limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Waddle appears to at least have a good chance to play through the issue Sunday against Arizona. Waddle has been one of the more disappointing early-round fantasy picks through six weeks, collecting just 22 catches for 228 yards and one touchdown on 38 targets across six games.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Participating in Thursday's practice
Waddle (chest) was at practice Thursday after being limited Wednesday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Waddle at least hasn't taken a step back, though it remains to be seen if he can upgrade to full participation Thursday and assuage any concerns about missing Sunday's game against the Cardinals. The offseason trade acquisition has lived up to the hype only once through six games with the Broncos, notching 138 receiving yards in Week 2 against the Jaguars and just 90 receiving yards across five other games combined.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Tending to chest injury
Waddle was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a chest injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Waddle missed a brief spell in last Thursday's win against the Seahawks due to a shoulder injury, finishing Week 6 with four catches (on seven targets) for 24 yards. Almost one week later, he's tending to a chest issue, meaning his status will be watched closely as the weekend draws closer.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Team-high catch total Thursday
Waddle secured four of seven targets for 24 yards in the Broncos' 17-14 overtime win over the Seahawks on Thursday.
Waddle exited the game briefly due to a shoulder injury, but he was still able to finish as the Broncos' reception and targets leader on the night. Waddle's yardage total, modest as it was, also qualified him for runner-up status in that category on a night when Bo Nix threw for only 107 yards and averaged 4.0 yards per attempt. Waddle's production has suffered collateral damage from Nix's constant short-area throwing thus far this season, as the veteran receiver is averaging a career-low 10.4 yards per reception and just 38.0 receiving yards per game heading into a Week 7 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Back in Thursday's game
Waddle suffered a shoulder injury in the third quarter of Thursday's game against the Seahawks but was able to return, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post and Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com report.
Now that he's back after missing a handful of minutes of game action, Waddle will look to add to his two catches (on five targets) for 15 yards.
