Who Should I Start? Javonte Williams or Bo Nix

Sunday, January 12, 4:22 PM

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams tallied 29 yards on seven attempts during their loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon. Williams also brought in both of his targets for 14 yards. With Audric Estime listed as a healthy scratch, Williams led the Denver backfield, as the depth options, Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie combined for just four rushing attempts. However, quarterback Bo Nix led the team in rushing with 43 yards. This was another disappointing game for Williams, as he had trouble finding consistency in the Denver rushing attack. Over the final six games of the regular season, the North Carolina product averaged a poor 2.4 yards per carry and only 11.0 yards per game. Williams saw his fantasy value decrease this season after falling into a committee in the Denver backfield and will look to rebound in 2025.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix went 13-for-22 with 144 yards and a touchdown during their loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon. Nix added 43 yards on four carries, which led the team on the ground. The Oregon product started out hot completing a 43-yard TD to his college teammate Troy Franklin to give Denver an early lead on their first drive. However, the Broncos could not get anything going on offense throughout the rest of the game as the Bills shut the door after this touchdown. Nix relied on his top wideout, Courtland Sutton, in this contest as he saw a team-high nine targets and brought in five passes for 75 yards, which also led the team. Despite the tough loss, Nix enjoyed an excellent debut season, throwing for 3,7775 with 33 total touchdowns. After an impressive debut campaign, the former first-round selection is a rising asset in dynasty formats.
