Bo Nix has played some bad football this season as the QB22 in fantasy points per game. He has one game this season with more than 16 fantasy points, and his passing accuracy metrics have been horrible. Among 29 qualifying passers, Nix has the third-fewest yards per attempt, the sixth-lowest passing success rate, the sixth-lowest highly accurate throw rate, and the sixth-highest turnover-worthy throw rate. Yep, there's nothing pretty there. I'd love to craft a positive Nix blurb here, but it's tough to believe in him at the moment. The matchup is quite nice this week, though, so we should expect at least decent QB2 value this week. The Bolts defense has mirrored their offense in dysfunction, giving up the eighth-most yards per attempt, the ninth-highest passing success rate, the eighth-highest CPOE, and the 14th-most fantasy points per dropback.

Bo Nix struggles in Week 4 loss to 49ers

Bo Nix completed 25 of 42 passing attempts for 214 yards and one touchdown while adding 10 yards on the ground in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Fantasy Impact

Nix couldn't carry over his three-touchdown performance from Week 3. The Broncos struggled to get much going offensively, and Nix needed 42 attempts to get to 214 passing yards. The good news is he didn't turn the ball over and added 10 yards on the ground. Nix gets a better matchup against the winless Los Angeles Chargers in Week 5, but he remains more of a QB2 with streaming upside for fantasy managers.
