Broncos QB Trevor Siemian expected to start on Thursday

Oct 10, 2016

After missing just one game with a separated non-throwing shoulder, Broncos QB Trevor Siemian is expected to start on Thursday night in San Diego.

Per NFL Network Insider Ian Rapaport, "...It seems, unless something changes over the next couple days, that it will be Siemian back in as the starter for Denver."

Even against a mediocre Atlanta secondary, Denver struggled on offense without Siemian under center.

Fantasy Impact:

Siemian was coming off of a 300-yard, 4 TD performance in Week 3 and looked well on his way to another big day before getting injured in Week 4 against Tampa Bay. Consider the Broncos QB a strong streaming option against a Chargers defense that has allowed the third-most passing yards in the league this year.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
