Who Should I Start? Caleb Williams or Bo Nix

Thursday, May 29, 1:46 PM

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is taking part in voluntary organized team activities this week, but he was intercepted twice in a rough day for the offense at practice on Wednesday. Williams had a minor surgery in the offseason to remove a cyst from his right wrist, but he's back on the practice field and shouldn't have any issues being ready for his second NFL campaign. The 23-year-old former first overall pick out of USC was a disappointment in his first year in the NFL and took a league-high 68 sacks in 17 starts. It didn't help that Chicago fired head coach Matt Eberflus and offensive coordinator Shane Waldron midway through the season. Williams finished with 3,541 passing yards, 20 touchdowns and six interceptions. While Williams is by no means on the QB1 radar in fantasy, he should be able to improve in Year 2 under new head coach Ben Johnson in an offense with plenty of playmakers.

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix enjoyed a fantastic rookie campaign, completing over 66% of his passes for 3,775 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. He added 430 yards and three scores as a runner. Heading into his sophomore campaign, the Auburn and Oregon product will have familiarity and stability he is not accustomed to. For the first time since high school, Nix will begin a season with the same head coach and play-caller in place in back-to-back seasons. He will also have the same quarterbacks coach, Davis Webb, and Nick Kosmider of The Athletic projects his starting offensive line to be the same as last year's group. Nix finished last year's season as the overall QB7, and new weapons, RJ Harvey, Evan Engram, and Pat Bryant, should provide upgrades over last year's supporting cast. Nix is being valued around the QB8 spot in early fantasy football drafts, but he could have top-five upside at the position thanks to his rushing floor and ceiling.
