Joe Burrow News
Thursday, April 2, 4:47 PM
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has missed time in all but one of his professional seasons and started at least 11 games only three times in his six-year career. When active and healthy, the 29-year-old former first overall pick is unquestionably one of the best quarterbacks in the league, leading the NFL in touchdown passes in 2024 after finishing second in 2022. In a fantasy landscape geared ever more toward rushing quarterbacks, he is one of the few pocket passers in the league who can reliably threaten a QB1 finish on the strength of passing yards and touchdowns. With the Bengals offense largely intact, healthy, and with nary a contract dispute on the horizon, Burrow's continuity with Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Chase Brown could have him in line for the first such finish of his career.

Bo Nix News
Sunday, April 19, 10:10 AM
Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix (ankle) had his 2025 season come to an unfortunate end when he suffered a fractured ankle during his team's AFC Divisional Round win over the Buffalo Bills. However, Nix is expected to be fully ready to go for the start of the 2026 season. Across 17 games in 2025, the 26-year-old completed 63.4% of his pass attempts for 3,931 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. Nix also rushed for 356 yards and five touchdowns on 83 attempts. While Nix hasn't been particularly efficient (6.5 yards per pass attempt) through the first two years of his NFL career, the Broncos high-volume pass game and Nix's ability to impact the game with his legs allow him to maintain fantasy upside. If the return from ankle injury prevents Nix from being effective as a scrambler, his fantasy production could suffer. Nix's dynasty value is trending slightly downward as he enters his third season in the NFL.
