Who Should I Start? Amon-Ra St. Brown or Bo Nix

Thursday, October 9, 4:59 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (wrist) practiced in full on Thursday after missing the team's Wednesday practice due to a wrist injury. The 25-year-old appears to be trending towards being available to play in Week 6 against the Kansas City Chiefs. St. Brown is the unquestioned number one option in the passing game for Detroit with 35 catches for 407 yards and six touchdowns on 41 targets through five games this season. If things were to reverse course and St. Brown were to miss time, Lions wideouts Jameson Williams and Isaac TeSlaa would likely see an uptick in target share, as would tight end Sam LaPorta and running back Jahmyr Gibbs. Assuming St. Brown can play on Sunday, he profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 6 against Kansas City.

Denver Broncos Quarterback Bo Nix had a solid outing in which he faced the undefeated reigning Super Bowl Champion Eagles on Sunday. While he ended the day with the win after showing impressive game management to close the comeback window on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and company, he completed 61.5% of passes for 242 yards and a touchdown while rushing for 22 yards on three attempts in Sunday's 21-17 win. There was quite a bit of duress in the pocket as Nix was sacked twice, but he showed good poise in clutch moments down the stretch. This should inject confidence in him as he will face the New York Jets in Week 6, who just gave up four touchdowns through the air to the Dallas Cowboys.
