Game Info
Kickoff: Sunday, December 14, 2025, 4:25 p.m. ET
Location: Empower Field at Mile High, Denver, CO
Network: CBS
Green Bay Packers
Quarterback
Jordan Love: SIT, QB2 (startable in Superflex)
Jordan Love has had a nice little resurgence recently, throwing for seven touchdowns in the past two weeks and back-to-back games over 25 fantasy points.
Now bench him.
Yeah, seems harsh, I know, but Love failed to throw for over 240 yards in either of those games, faces the dominant Denver defense, which recently got back the reigning Defensive Player of the Year, Patrick Surtain II — hard pass in 1QB. He’s startable in Superflex, but so is J.J. McCarthy.
Running Back
Josh Jacobs: START, RB1
Emanuel Wilson: SIT
Josh Jacobs is the bell cow you lock into your lineup, but did you know that he pulled off a legendary “food heist” after a Thanksgiving game? Following a win over the Dolphins in 2024, he didn’t just take the ceremonial bite of the turkey leg — he confiscated the entire platter, including the whole bird and sides, and walked off the set to feed his offensive linemen in the locker room.
Wide Receiver
Christian Watson: START, WR2
Romeo Doubs: SIT
Jayden Reed: FLEX, WR4
Dontayvion Wicks: SIT
Jayden Reed returned, but Christian Watson did not care. Both had four targets each, but Watson was the one who turned them into two touchdowns, catching four passes for 89 yards, averaging 22.3 yards per reception. Reed caught all four of his targets as well, but managed just 31 receiving yards. Watson is on an unbelievable run and has seemingly emerged as the WR1 for the Packers. Reed’s return rendered Dontayvion Wicks and Romeo Doubs useless, at least for one week. Watson and Reed are the only receivers in Green Bay I’d consider starting, with Watson pushing WR2 status and Reed a volatile flex for now.
Tight End
Luke Musgrave: SIT
Get well soon, Tucker Kraft.
Defense/Special Teams
Green Bay Packers: STREAMER
Green Bay has a respectable 33 sacks and is one of seven teams holding opponents under 20 points per game this season.
Denver Broncos
Quarterback
Bo Nix: SIT, QB2 (Startable in Superflex)
Similar to C.J. Stroud, the Broncos are winning with Bo Nix, but not because of Bo Nix. Nix has more interceptions (three) than touchdowns thrown (two) since Week 10, and is only startable in Superflex leagues. I’d pivot elsewhere if it’s an option, considering Green Bay allows the fewest points to the position.
Running Back
RJ Harvey: START, RB2
Jaleel McLaughlin: SIT
Tyler Badie: SIT
RJ Harvey ran for a career-high 75 yards on 17 carries against the Raiders, including his fourth rushing touchdown of the season. Harvey had career highs in targets and receptions with six each, adding 25 yards through the air. It was Harvey’s most efficient game since taking over as the lead back with J.K. Dobbins sidelined, forcing six missed tackles and two runs over 10 yards. He’s getting hot at the right time, with back-to-back games over 20 points, and is locked in as a high-end RB2 for the entirety of the fantasy playoffs.
Wide Receiver
Courtland Sutton: START, WR2
Troy Franklin: SIT
Pat Bryant
One game is a blip on the radar, two is a concern, and three is a trend. Troy Franklin appeared to be taking over as the Broncos’ WR1 before their bye, but has just seven targets and 8.2 fantasy points in their two games since. Courtland Sutton has 16 targets and 29.4 fantasy points over that same span, seemingly reclaiming his WR1 role in the offense. Rookie Pat Bryant had been getting more involved as of late, but is expected to miss Week 15 with a hamstring injury. Franklin may see more work with Bryant out, but the only Broncos receiver you can start is Sutton.
Tight End
Evan Engram: SIT
Adam Trautman: SIT
Defense/Special Teams
Denver Broncos: START
Set it and forget it.
