BALLER MOVE: Start in Superflex Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB19
ANALYSIS: New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers has played well after a torn Achilles ended his 2023 season after a handful of snaps. The future Hall of Famer is the QB14 over the first three weeks, averaging 14.9 fantasy points per game.
The veteran had a poor Week 1 performance but has been outstanding the past two weeks against talented defenses. He has had two passing touchdowns and at least 15 fantasy points in back-to-back games. Furthermore, Rodgers showed some athleticism in Week 3, totaling 18 rushing yards on three attempts.
Rodgers. Lazard. SIX!

Fantasy players in single-quarterback leagues can likely find a better starting option than Rodgers this week. However, the veteran is the perfect QB2 for superflex league fantasy players. He faces a Denver Broncos defense that has surrendered only 150.3 passing yards, one touchdown, and 12.6 fantasy points per game to quarterbacks.
However, expect Rodgers and the offense to play with a chip on their shoulder following Sean Payton’s comments about Nathaniel Hackett last year.
