Demaryius Thomas’s monster fantasy season marches on
Denver Broncos wide receiver Demaryius Thomas caught eight passes for 123 yards and a touchdown in the Week 16 win over the Houston Texans. We bring you the fantasy implications here.
Fantasy impact: Thomas will remain a WR1 and a must start in all fantasy leagues. The Texans are giving up the fourth least fantasy points to wide receivers and Manning and Thomas put up a clinic against them. With Wes Welker likely out until the playoffs, he will get plenty of looks. The Broncos will face the Oakland Raiders in Week 17. The Raiders are giving up the ninth most fantasy points to wide receivers.
