Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 6: Demaryius Thomas a must-start vs. Chargers
Demaryius Thomas could be primed for a big game against the Chargers’ depleted secondary.

After a subpar 2015 season for Demaryius Thomas by his standards, the star wide receiver is quietly having a nice bounce-back year.
Through five games, Thomas has hauled in 26 passes for 381 yards and three scores for the Denver Broncos. He has also scored the ninth-most points of any receiver in fantasy football. Thomas has done this while dealing with new starting quarterback Trevor Siemian, as well as fill-in rookie Paxton Lynch for two games.
Now Thomas gets to face a San Diego Chargers team that has one of, if not the NFL’s worst defense. He will also do so with Siemian expected to be back in the starting lineup.
Fantasy Impact: Yahoo! ranks Thomas as the 14th-best receiver in Week 6. He faces a Chargers team allowing the sixth-most receiving yards to receivers over the past three weeks.
There is no question you should be starting Thomas for this Thursday Night Football matchup.
