✅ STARTS
Bo Nix – QB, Broncos
Bo Nix has taken major strides this season, showing poise and confidence in Sean Payton’s system. He’s no longer forcing the ball to one target and is using his legs effectively when the pocket breaks down. Expect solid fantasy output with 250+ total yards and a rushing score possible.
J.K. Dobbins – RB, Broncos
Healthy, efficient, and decisive — that’s been Dobbins’ story so far. He’s running hard and getting involved as a receiver. Pencil him in for around 80 yards and a touchdown against a defense that’s had issues stopping versatile backs.
Courtland Sutton – WR, Broncos
After a quieter week, Sutton should bounce back as Nix’s top target. His physical style and red-zone reliability make him a strong WR2 play this week, especially with Denver looking to attack downfield.

Jaxson Dart – QB, Giants
The rookie has been fearless, showing mobility, confidence, and leadership beyond his years. He’s facing a Denver defense that has been inconsistent against mobile quarterbacks, making him a sneaky start with multi-TD upside.
Cam Skattebo – RB, Giants
Skattebo continues to run hard and make defenders miss. After posting 96 yards and a touchdown against Philadelphia, he’ll be leaned on again as the centerpiece of the Giants’ ground attack. He’s a rock-solid RB2 play.
💪 FLEX PLAYS
Wan’Dale Robinson – WR, Giants
Robinson was electric last week with 84 yards and a touchdown. However, with Patrick Surtain II likely shadowing him, expectations should be tempered. Still, his quickness and YAC ability give him enough upside to justify a flex start.
🌟 SLEEPERS
Evan Engram – TE, Broncos
Engram has quietly emerged as a steady secondary target for Bo Nix, with increased usage in the middle of the field. He’s showing chemistry and could easily post TE1 numbers if he finds the end zone.
Theo Johnson – TE, Giants
Johnson has been trending up with 4–6 targets per game and even found paydirt recently. His athleticism makes him a mismatch against linebackers, and he could turn a few catches into big plays. Solid streaming option.
🔮 Fantasy Outlook Summary for the Giants, Broncos
The Broncos are finding their offensive identity behind Nix’s dual-threat ability, while the Giants continue to surprise with their young playmakers. Expect both quarterbacks to put up sneaky-good fantasy numbers and for the running backs to be steady producers. The tight ends — Engram and Johnson — are your deep-league sleepers to watch this week.
