Without the score, he looks like the same old Nix. He has been a below-average passer at every depth of the field this year by both yards per attempt and completion rate, with the exception of throws behind the line of scrimmage. Now he gets a Chiefs team that has smothered quarterback production, allowing the third-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing passers.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Nix is a fade against Chiefs' elite pass defense after unsustainable rushing TD.

Nix is a sit in Week 8 against Kansas City despite last week's 62-yard rushing touchdown. Without that score, he looks like the same below-average passer. Against Arizona, he pushed the ball downfield more but completed just 1-of-8 deep passes. He has been below-average at every depth of field this year except behind the line of scrimmage. Kansas City has smothered quarterback production, allowing the third-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing passers.
