The Week 3 showdown loses a primary target for each side.
Denver sidelines Marvin Mims while Los Angeles holds back Puka Nacua for the game. For my money, losing these playmakers hurts both offenses.
Mims battles a foot problem; Nacua’s psoas strain may heal quickly.
Denver’s unavailable list: Marvin Mims, QB Sam Ehlinger, WR Lil’Jordan Humphrey, DL Sai’Vion Jones, OL Kage Casey, TE Dallen Bentley and DL Tyler Onyedim. Ehlinger serves as the emergency third quarterback.
Los Angeles’ missing players: Puka Nacua, safety Kam Kinchens, WR CJ Daniels, WR Tutu Atwell, QB Ty Simpson, safety Maximus Pulley and OL Bill Murray. Simpson is the Rams’ emergency third quarterback. Will their depth hold up against Denver’s attack?
