Jaylen Waddle, is he a lost cause with Bo Knicks? Probably... I got the Wadd in fantasy so wrong this year... All that has happened for Jaylen Waddle. That was correct. The problem is the quarterback has just played worse... is he a lost cause? If Bonx is going to play like this the rest of the season, yes, he's a lost cause.
STACKED’s take
Waddle is a lost cause in 2025 if Bo Nix doesn't improve his play
Matt Harmon calls Jaylen Waddle a lost cause in 2025 unless Bo Nix improves, citing it as one of his most annoying fantasy misses. Waddle's role change to Denver was correctly projected—he's the move-around, slot-heavy player getting off-ball reps at all three levels, exactly as intended. However, the quarterback play has collapsed; Nix is checking down, bailing on plays, and not pulling the trigger to Waddle despite the Broncos' clear conceptual intent to get him the ball. Injuries have not been the issue; Waddle has been on the field. Courtland Sutton's presence was a red herring—he's doing nothing in Denver. The problem is purely Nix's deteriorating play coming off a major injury, amplifying his pre-existing tendency to bail and check down.
