STACKED’s take

Negative signalDepth Chart

Mims has 10% roster chance; faces deep WR depth chart competition after UFL stint.

Mims signed with Dallas as a backup WR on a veteran minimum deal ($1.15M cap hit) after spending two years in the UFL (2025 with St. Louis Battlehawks, spring 2026 with Dallas Renegades), where he managed only 11 catches for 110 yards across both seasons. The source projects him as a backup WR with just a 10% roster chance, noting he faces steep competition for the bottom of the depth chart behind three assured spots (Lamb, Pickens, Flournoy), a likely fourth for Turpin, and other veterans like Jonathan Mingo and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, plus young prospects Anthony Smith, Traeshon Holden, and Jordan Hudson.
