Noah Fant - Page 16 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Cleared for Thursday night Fant (foot) practiced fully Wednesday and doesn't have an injury designation for Thursday's game in Cleveland, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Impact Fant is good to go on a short week and will be coming off his best performance of the season, as he delivered a 9-97-1 line on 11 targets while the Broncos were forced into catchup mode for most of last Sunday's loss to the Raiders. Another healthy dose of targets should be headed Fant's way Week 7 regardless of the game script, though he may have to make do with Drew Lock at quarterback rather than Teddy Bridgewater. After being listed as a limited participant throughout the week while tending to foot and quadriceps injuries, Bridgewater is listed as questionable for Thursday's contest.

Stays limited Tuesday Fant (foot) was limited at Tuesday's walkthrough, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Impact Fant remained limited on the Broncos' second injury report of Week 7 prep by a foot injury. Meanwhile, QB Teddy Bridgewater also has had a cap on his practice reps, and there's no guarantee he'll be available Thursday at Cleveland. Fant is coming off a three-game stretch in which he earned 90-plus percent of the offensive snaps each time on his way to 18 catches (on 25 targets) for 163 yards and two TDs. Assuming he's cleared for Thursday's contest, he'll look to keep it going with Bridgewater under center, which may not be confirmed until 90 minutes before the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Denver's pricey secondary looks like a waste of money so far

Limited on Week 7 practice report Denver lists Fant as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report due to a foot injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Impact Fant feasted in garbage time of Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Raiders, with much of his 9-97-1 stat line on a season-high 11 targets coming in the second half, when the Broncos were forced to lean heavily on the passing game. The tight end looks like he may have hurt his foot at some point along the way, but the fact that he's being listed as limited on the Broncos' first Week 7 injury report suggests he's on a path to play Thursday in Cleveland.

Big game against Vegas Fant caught nine of 11 targets for 97 yards and one touchdown against Las Vegas on Sunday.

Impact The Broncos offense struggled for much of the game, and Fant didn't really get into high gear until the second half, but this box score is elite tight-end production and the level of play Fant might be more regularly capable of if the Broncos keep sending the targets his way. After allowing five sacks and an incredible 17 quarterback hits against Vegas, the Broncos need to do a much better job of managing the pass rush for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, and the imminent return of Jerry Jeudy (ankle) threatens Fant's target share somewhat, but Fant is on the radar as a viable tight-end option nonetheless. Denver heads to Cleveland in Week 7.

Catches three passes in loss Fant secured three of four targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Fant played on 97 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps, marking a season high for the veteran tight end. With so many injuries to Denver's pass catchers, Fant has seen his playing time increase week over week. The 23-year-old didn't see his first target in Sunday's game until the fourth quarter despite the Broncos trailing the Steelers for most of the contest. It was an unusual day in the office for Fant, as game flow seemed to favor him being more involved in the passing game. Nonetheless, the 6-foot-4, 249-pounder will look to get back on track in a Week 6 matchup against the Raiders.

Finds end zone in Sunday's loss Fant caught six of 10 targets for 46 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the Ravens.

Impact The tight end led Denver in targets and receptions on the afternoon -- in fact, no other Bronco caught more than three passes -- but Fant's longest grab went for only 14 yards. He did account for the team's only points on a three-yard toss from Teddy Bridgewater in the second quarter, but with Bridgewater now dealing with a concussion, the Broncos' passing game will be a big question mark heading into a Week 5 clash with the Steelers.
