Since arriving in Mile High as a second-round pick in 2023, Mims has done his best with the opportunities given to him. Head coach Sean Payton has utilized Mims as a Swiss-Army knife with the Oklahoma product being used as a wide out and a return specialist.
In his first three seasons in Denver, Mims contributed 98 receptions for 1,202 receiving yards and eight touchdowns in 48 games. Mims also made two Pro Bowls as a return specialist, leading the league with yards per punt return (15.7) in 2024 and punt return yards (452) last season, respectively.
Even though the Broncos have a crowded WR room with Courtland Sutton, Waddle, Troy Franklin, Lil’Jordan Humphrey and Pat Bryant, Mims is prepared for any opportunities that come his way despite the major changes to the roster.
“For me, it’s just answering the door when the bell is rung,” he said. “I feel like I’ve done that pretty well the past three years, but when I get my opportunities, make the most of it. Be a good teammate and assist the team in however many ways they want. This year, the team we have, the roster we have, how far we went last year, we’re all expecting a Super Bowl this year.”
