Who Should I Start? Lamar Jackson or Bo Nix

Thursday, December 25, 5:51 PM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (back) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's contest against the Green Bay Packers. Jackson exited their Week 16 contest with a back injury and was unable to participate in this week's practices. While the Ravens have not officially ruled out their star QB, he appears to be facing an uphill battle to suit up. During last weekend's contest, Jackson was replaced by veteran QB Tyler Huntley. In relief, Huntley went 9-for-10 with just 65 yards and no scores. Even if Jackson is able to suit up, managers should view him as a low-end QB1 with risk given his recent stretch of play. Over his last five games, Jackson has only been able to eclipse the 20.0 PPR point mark once. Huntley would carry low-end QB2 value facing a tough Green Bay defense that has allowed the 10th-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs and should not be started in any one-QB leagues.

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix had another clutch showing in their 20-13 win against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17. Nix had a mediocre day through the air, completing 26 of 38 pass attempts for 182 yards with one touchdown and one interception, but elevated his overall fantasy day with a new season high in rushes, taking nine carries for 42 yards and a touchdown. Before the second half, Nix had no touchdowns and one interception. The Broncos have now won 12 of their last 13 games, and only three of those games were decided by more than one score. In Week 18, the Broncos will host the Los Angeles Chargers to end the regular season.
