Broncos Defense Could Be In Streaming Consideration
4 years agoThe Denver Broncos Defense hasn't been much of a fantasy option so far this year, coming into their Week 5 matchup against the Patriots ranked 26th in the league in overall fantasy points. It didn't help that they lost former Super Bowl MVP linebacker Von Miller (ankle) for the year right before the Week 1 opener. Top cornerback A.J. Bouye still isn't back either, and they recently lost star defensive tackle Jurrell Casey to a season-ending injury. They could be without linebacker Jeremiah Attaochu (quadriceps) and nose tackle Mike Purcell (knee) on Monday, too, but they are worth streaming consideration in 12-team leagues with Patriots quarterback Cam Newton unlikely to play after a positive COVID-19 test. New England's offense looked lost with both Brian Hoyer and Jarrett Stidham under center last week. If Bradley Chubb can successfully rush the passer like he did in Week 4 with a league-high 10 QB pressures, Denver's defense could surprise on Monday night.
