Bo Nix Near-Perfect in Preseason Debut

Saturday, August 22, 5:25 AM

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix and most of the team's starting offense worked only two series in Friday night's preseason loss to the Packers, but they made their efforts count, ending both drives with points. On the night, Nix was 6-of-9 for 76 yards with a touchdown, connecting with five different pass-catchers, including a 35-yard strike to his newest receiver, Jaylen Waddle. Nix has finished as the fantasy QB7 in each of his first two seasons, leading the league in pass attempts in 2025 while adding 356 yards and five touchdowns on the ground, and despite the team trading for a true number-one receiver in Waddle, he is currently being drafted as the QB15. As one of the most potentially mispriced quarterbacks to be found in the closing rounds of 2026 drafts, Nix offers a safe floor and legitimate week-winning upside, though the Broncos face one of the league's most daunting opening schedules with games against the Chiefs, Jaguars, Rams, 49ers, Chargers, and Seahawks across the first six weeks.

Cam Ward News

Cam Ward Putting Together a Strong Training Camp

Friday, August 21, 10:23 AM

Tennessee Titans quarterback Cam Ward hasn't been perfect this summer, but Robert Saleh has liked a lot more than he hasn't. Saleh told Terry McCormick that Ward has had practices where he's been "elite," along with a few days he'd probably like back. More often than not, though, Saleh said Ward is "doing a hell of a job" and making good decisions. The swings have shown up over the past week. Ward completed 21 of 25 passes with five touchdowns during arguably his best practice of camp, then went just 5-for-12 for 57 yards in Tennessee's preseason opener, despite leading a 95-yard touchdown drive to start the game. Ward threw for 3,169 yards, 15 touchdowns and seven interceptions as a rookie, with another 159 yards and two scores on the ground. There is still plenty of room for him to grow, but Saleh clearly likes the progress Ward is making heading into his second season.
