Top Tyler Badie News

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Has broken thumb, lands on IR

    The Broncos placed Badie (thumb) on injured reserve Saturday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

    Per Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette, Badie broke his thumb during the Broncos' 17-14 overtime win over the Seahawks in Week 6. Badie is required to miss at least four games, and the earliest he can return is Week 12 against the Steelers on Friday, Nov. 27. Jonah Coleman (ankle) was activated from injured reserve in a corresponding move, and if he's cleared to play Sunday, then he would slot in as the RB3 behind J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Won't play against Arizona

    Badie (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Badie injured his thumb during the Broncos' Week 6 win over the Seahawks, and the injury prevented him from practicing during Week 7 prep. The Broncos could promote Cody Schrader from the practice squad to the active roster to give the team extra backfield depth due to the absence of Badie, whose next chance to play is Week 8 against the Chiefs on Sunday, Nov. 1.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Misses practice again Thursday

    Badie (thumb) did not participate at practice Thursday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

    Badie was knocked out of the Broncos' contest versus the Seahawks in Week 6 early by a thumb injury, and now his status for Week 7 is in jeopardy. Unless he's able to return to practice Friday, odds are not great he'll be able to play Sunday at Arizona.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Absent from Wednesday's practice

    Badie (thumb) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Badie sustained a thumb injury during the first half of the Broncos' Week 6 win over the Seahawks this past Thursday and did not return to the contest. He's opened the week with a DNP, and he'll have two more chances to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of Sunday's road game against the Cardinals.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Won't return Thursday

    Badie (thumb) won't return to Thursday's game against Seattle, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports. He finished with one carry for six yards.

    Badie suffered a thumb injury in the first half and was considered questionable to return. Now that he has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's contest, RJ Harvey and J.K. Dobbins should each get a few more touches.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Questionable to return Thursday night

    Badie (thumb) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against Seattle, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Badie suffered a thumb injury in the first half. He has just one carry for six yards in this contest, so his absence could mean a few additional snaps for J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Helps as runner, receiver, returner Sunday

    Badie carried twice for seven yards, caught both of his targets for 32 yards, ran in a two-point conversion and returned one kickoff for 21 yards in a loss to San Francisco in Week 4.

    Badie chipped in for the Broncos in multiple facets. The highlights of his performance were a 25-yard catch-and-run in the first quarter and a two-point conversion on a run up the middle in the fourth quarter. Badie doesn't have much fantasy value given the low volume of touches he gets on a weekly basis, so it would likely take injuries ahead of him on the RB depth chart for Badie to become an intriguing waiver-wire addition.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Handles three touches in Week 2

    Badie rushed one time for one yard in Denver's 20-13 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. He added two catches for 28 yards on three targets.

    With RJ Harvey (hamstring) inactive against Jacksonville and J.K. Dobbins suffering a hamstring injury of his own in the game, Badie saw 16 offensive snaps behind rookie Jonah Coleman. Badie also returned three kickoffs for 84 yards on special teams.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Healthy scratch Week 1

    Badie (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Badie beat out Jaleel McLaughlin for a final spot on the Broncos' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. However, Badie will observe Monday night's contest in street clothes while the Broncos roll with three active running backs in RJ Harvey, J.K. Dobbins and rookie fourth-rounder Jonah Coleman. Badie's next chance to suit up is Week 2 against the Jaguars this Sunday.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Beats out McLaughlin for roster spot

    Badie was one of four running backs to make the Broncos' 53-man roster following the conclusion of training camp, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

    Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin entered training camp battling for a depth spot on the active roster. Badie was the one who earned that fourth and final running back spot, joining backfield teammates J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey and rookie fourth-rounder Jonah Coleman, while McLaughlin found a new opportunity in Cleveland on the Browns' practice squad. Badie figures to mostly see the field on special teams as a returner on kickoffs, though he could be in the mix for backfield touches if one of Dobbins, Harvey or Coleman were to miss time.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Set to receive tender

    The Broncos have opted to tender Badie, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Badie played in 16 regular-season games last year and totaled eight carries for 23 yards. He was more active as a pass catcher, corralling 19 of 31 targets for 141 yards, and as a kick returner, racking up 452 yards on 17 attempts. Badie will likely serve as a backup again next season, though there could be room for his role to expand depending on what Denver does to build its RB corps during the offseason. J.K. Dobbins (foot) will be an unrestricted free agent and Jaleel McLaughlin wasn't tendered, so only RJ Harvey is clearly ahead of Badie in the pecking order among the team's ball carriers who are certain to return.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Minimal production in 2025 campaign

    Badie ended the 2025 regular season with eight carries for 23 yards, adding 19 receptions on 31 targets for 141 yards across 16 games.

    Badie was mostly an afterthought in 2025, with teammates J.K. Dobbins (foot) and RJ Harvey stealing the show for the vast majority of the season. The second-year running back was used sparingly out of the backfield, primarily as a pass catcher in hurry-up situations. Not surprisingly, Badie played a complementary role behind Dobbins and Harvey this season. After Dobbins landed on IR, teammate Jaleel McLaughlin leaped Badie on the depth chart as well. The 25-year-old Badie will become an exclusive rights free agent this offseason, so if Denver offers him a tender, he'll be back with the Broncos next season. If Denver decides to not make the offer, the Missouri product will become an unrestricted free agent and could join another squad's running-back rotation as a depth option.

  • Broncos' Tyler Badie: Minimal production in Week 16

    Badie caught one of three targets for two yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    Badie failed to record a single carry for the second straight week and the 11th time this season. Moreover, the 25-year-old running back has seen his role as a pass catcher diminish in recent weeks, while rookie RJ Harvey has taken a step forward in that capacity. The Missouri product played just 15 of the Broncos' 66 offensive snaps Sunday, behind Harvey (39) and ahead of Jaleel McLaughlin (10). Barring an injury to Harvey or McLaughlin, Badie holds little fantasy value going forward. Next up for Denver is a Week 17 road matchup against the Chiefs.
