McLaughlin takes the spot on the 53-man roster vacated when Dylan Sampson (knee) was placed on injured reserve. McLaughlin has appeared in 41 career regular-season games over three seasons with the Broncos, carrying the ball 226 times for 1,093 yards for a 4.8 YPC while scoring three touchdowns. He's also been competent as a pass catcher, securing 59 of 69 targets for 263 yards and four more TDs. McLaughlin could play an immediate role in passing situations behind early-down back Quinshon Judkins.

FavorableOver his last 8 games, Jaleel McLaughlin has gone over 23.5 RUSH YDS 4 of 8 decided times (50%) — versus 50% across the full season. CAR has been a favorable matchup for running backs this season, allowing the 1st-most RUSH YDS of 32 teams (86.8 per game) (small sample — read with caution). His game-to-game RUSH YDS have been moderately variable (σ ≈ 10.3), so short streaks can mislead. These are descriptive stats about past games, not predictions or betting advice.
