BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 57% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The Denver Broncos survived and made a great comeback against the struggling Chicago Bears, and quarterback Russell Wilson has looked more comfortable this season through four games. Two of his four games he's had more than 20 fantasy points, and he currently ranks as QB9 in most formats. Wilson has been pretty efficient this year and even flashed his old rushing upside with 56 yards in Week 2.
The return of Jerry Jeudy certainly has helped Wilson as he has two very solid go-to receivers with Jeudy and Courtland Sutton. The Broncos have been throwing the ball 65% of the time and are likely to be without running back Javonte Williams for a short time. The Broncos are currently sitting at 1-3 and have had to play catch-up in every single game. That trend is likely to continue and bodes very well for Wilson in fantasy.
Upcoming matchups for Wilson aren't the most appealing (NYJ, KC, GB), but the Broncos have been effective in throwing the ball so far this year. I expect Sean Payton's offenses to continue to lean on the pass and have favorable game scripts, making Wilson a solid backup in case of an emergency.

5, Justin Herbert, LAC, 106.3*-But he threw some interceptions in training camp.
