Fantasy […]

The Denver Broncos defense/special teams unit has been the top fantasy defense through 15 weeks thanks to 51 sacks (second in the NFL), nine fumble recoveries, 15 interceptions (three returned for touchdowns) and only 281 points allowed. However, fantasy managers playing for a championship in Week 17 should be looking to avoid them this Saturday […]

Wil Lutz Looking To Keep Perfect Streak Alive Versus Bengals

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz enters the team's Week 17 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday on a streak of five straight games without missing a single kick. Since having a potential game-winning field goal blocked against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs in Week 10, Lutz has made all 11 of his field-goal attempts […]

Devaughn Vele Shouldn't Be In Starting Lineups In Week 17

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Devaughn Vele scored his second touchdown of the year in last Thursday night's loss to the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, but fantasy managers should have more reliable options to choose from for their flex spot this Saturday when the Broncos take on the Cincinnati Bengals on the road. The Bengals […]

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. has been more productive in recent weeks but will still be hard to trust in fantasy championship matchups in most leagues in Week 17 when the Broncos travel to Cincinnati to face the Bengals on Saturday in a game with huge playoff implications for both teams.

Javonte Williams A Low-Upside, Touchdown-Dependent RB3/Flex In Week 17

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams will have even less upside in a good matchup in Week 17 on Saturday against the Cincinnati Bengals on the road with backfield mate Jaleel McLaughlin (quadriceps) returning after a one-game absence.

Terry McLaurin Back At Thursday's Practice

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after he was a non-participant in the first practice of the week on Wednesday.
