Bo Nix has no plans to curtail his rushing despite last season’s broken ankle.

“Absolutely not,” was Nix’s response when asked if he planned to run less following his unfortunate Divisional Round injury. “I’m going to roll, and I’m going to be as athletic as I can be. Like the earlier question, it’s a strength of ours and we have to use our strengths. For me, that’s when I feel at my best and that’s when I feel free.” Nix went on for several more sentences. That’s about as clear as you could ever expect a player to be. Nix’s legs have been a big part of his low-end QB1 value and streamer success. Now with an enhanced supporting cast via the addition of Jaylen Waddle, the third-year starter could be set up for another “surprise” step forward in fantasy.
