From the episode

Jaleel McLaughlin, we just don't know what the status is yet for Quinchon Judkins. And then Dylan Sampson is also apparently on the verge of returning from IR. So it's possible Jaleel McLaughlin could be the number one in the bronze backfield this week. But it's also possible he's like not even active and both of those guys come back.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

McLaughlin's backfield role hinges on Judkins and Sampson injury status.

McLaughlin could be the number one in the Broncos backfield this week if Quinchon Judkins remains unavailable, but his status is uncertain; Dylan Sampson is also on the verge of returning from IR, so McLaughlin could be inactive if both Judkins and Sampson return, making him a one-week possibility with high variance.
