Broncos players ranked as fantasy football fades in Week 8
Summary

Fantasy football analyst Matt Okada identifies key players to fade for Week 8 of the 2026 season, focusing on the Denver Broncos. Quarterback Bo Nix, despite a massive performance earlier, is projected to struggle against the Chiefs, who have allowed the third-fewest points to quarterbacks. Running back J.K. Dobbins is also flagged, as he averages under nine fantasy points per game and faces a tough matchup. Dobbins' recent snap counts suggest he may be relegated to a secondary role, limiting his fantasy viability. Additionally, New England's TreVeyon Henderson is cautioned against, despite a favorable matchup against Miami, due to his recent performance trajectory.
