ANALYSIS: Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has quietly become a borderline must-start option for fantasy players. The rookie quarterback is the QB7 for the year, averaging 17.7 fantasy points per game. He has been exceptional lately, averaging 1.9 passing touchdowns and 21.4 fantasy points per game over the past seven weeks, totaling 20.7 or more in over half the contests.
Last week, Nix was outstanding, completing 84.8% of his pass attempts for 307 yards and four touchdowns, setting career highs in every category. He finished with 28.8 fantasy points in Week 11, the second performance with over 28 fantasy points in the past month.

Nix has several favorable matchups over the next few weeks, starting in Week 12 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Fantasy players looking for a solution at the quarterback position should make the rookie their top priority off waivers this week.
