Broncos D/ST A Top-10 Fantasy Option Against Chargers

Although the Los Angeles Chargers haven't been kind to opposing defense/special teams units this year -- D/ST units have scored an average of 3.3 fantasy points in four games against them -- the Denver Broncos defense/special teams is riding high and should be considered a top-10 fantasy option in Week 6 at home. Denver's D […]

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz has been a pleasant surprise for fantasy managers that have used him as a streamer at the position -- he's currently tied with Chris Boswell for the sixth-most fantasy points at kicker through five weeks -- but he won't be a recommended streamer in Week 6 versus the division-rival Los […]

Troy Franklin Should See The Field More In Week 6

With Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (finger) sidelined in Week 6 against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, rookie wideout Troy Franklin should see additional opportunities in the passing attack, albeit in a less-than-favorable matchup.

Jaleel McLaughlin Not A Recommended Fantasy Option Versus Chargers

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin has very little fantasy upside heading into a Week 6 matchup against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, a defense that has been stingy against the run in 2024. McLaughlin enters Sunday's game in Denver as the RB45 in half-PPR scoring as the backup to Javonte Williams in one of […]

Javonte Williams Faces Difficult Matchup In Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams had his best fantasy output of the season in the Week 5 win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders with 13.6 half-PPR points, but don't be surprised if he regresses this Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. The Bolts D has allowed 94 rushing yards per game (sixth […]

Temper Expectations For Bo Nix In Week 6

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix should be treated as a low-end QB2 in fantasy in a Week 6 divisional matchup at home against the Los Angeles Chargers, who are coming off their bye week. Nix threw for a measly 60 yards in the Week 4 upset win over the New York Jets but was […]

Trey Sermon Set For Lead-Back Duties Again
