Denver Broncos vs New York Giants NFL Preview: Team news, betting, tickets, live stream, Fantasy Football and more

This week, the Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo show heads west as the New York Giants (2-4) take on Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos (4-2) in Mile High.

Denver returns home after last weekend's London clash with the Jets, a 13-11 victory that was far from convincing. The Broncos' offense struggled to find any rhythm, managing just 246 total yards and a paltry 13 points against a Jets defense that had been far from intimidating. The question now is how quickly Denver can shake off travel fatigue and get back on track against a rested Giants squad.

The Giants come into this matchup riding a confidence boost after Thursday night's 34-17 dismantling of the Eagles. Their offense clicked for 25 first downs and, crucially, avoided turnovers, a stark contrast to the five giveaways the previous week. Dart, Skattebo, and company are aiming for back-to-back wins and three victories in four games, which would suddenly put New York in the thick of the NFC East race. Meanwhile, Denver needs a win to stay neck-and-neck with the Chargers atop the AFC West and maintain a slim edge over the Chiefs.

Team news & squads

Denver Broncos team news

While the spotlight has largely been on Denver's defensive unit, it's worth noting that the Broncos' offense has quietly been holding its own through much of the 2025 season. Last week’s narrow win over the Jets marked the first time the group failed to crack 20 points, but before that, they had been averaging a respectable 23.4 points per game over the opening five weeks. 

The real engine behind that production has been the ground game, with J.K. Dobbins proving to be a steady force in the backfield. The veteran back is averaging just shy of five yards per carry and has already racked up 442 yards and four touchdowns this year, giving Denver a reliable presence on the ground when the passing attack has sputtered.

Leading the charge under center is second-year quarterback Bo Nix, who caught fire late last season and carried that momentum into 2025. After tossing just eight touchdowns through the first nine games of his rookie campaign, Nix exploded for 21 scores over the final stretch. This season, the 25-year-old has been solid if unspectacular, completing 64.6% of his passes for 1,277 yards, nine touchdowns, and four interceptions — good for an 88.2 passer rating. Still, he's struggled when the heat is on; under pressure, Nix has completed just 21 of 43 attempts for 186 yards, a glaring area that opposing defenses will continue to exploit.

New York Giants team news

As for the Giants, they've been battling through their own injury woes. The team was without two of its top three receivers in last week’s clash with the Eagles. Malik Nabers is sidelined for the year after suffering an ACL tear in Week 4, and Darius Slayton remains questionable as he continues to nurse a hamstring injury. Head coach Brian Daboll provided a brief update, saying Slayton is "getting better" but "might be off to the side" during Wednesday's practice. "We'll see where Slay's at," Daboll added.

The injury bug hasn't stopped there — starting center John Michael Schmitz Jr. exited last week's game with a concussion and remains in protocol, with Austin Schlottmann handling first-team reps in his absence. Linebackers Swayze Bozeman (ankle) and Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) also missed Wednesday's session, though the Giants did receive a boost with the return of Victor Dimukeje. 

The veteran edge rusher, who joined the Giants in free agency after four seasons in Arizona, was activated off the PUP list after recovering from a pectoral injury suffered during offseason workouts. His return couldn't come at a better time for a defense that’s been stretched thin in recent weeks. It looks like the Giants might have struck gold with rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, wh'’s quickly starting to make waves in the NFL spotlight. Following his impressive performance against the Eagles, Dart's name has begun to surface in early Offensive Rookie of the Year conversations, and he now has a golden opportunity to build on that buzz when the Giants travel to Denver this week.

Against Philadelphia, Dart showcased both poise and versatility, completing 17 of 25 passes for 195 yards and a touchdown while also adding 58 rushing yards and another score. He's not the kind of quarterback who's going to put up jaw-dropping stat lines every Sunday, particularly against a defense as disciplined as Denver's, but what he brings is balance, grit, and the ability to extend plays when things break down. Simply put, Dart gives this Giants offense a fighting chance every time he takes the field.

Broncos vs Giants Fantasy Football

Bo Nix (18.3 projected W7 fpts) had another uneven outing in London during Week 6, going 19-of-30 (63.3%) for 174 yards (5.8 Y/A) with a single touchdown pass. This season, Nix has thrown one or fewer TDs in four of six games, leaving him sitting at QB21 in points per game (16.2). Right now, he’s firmly in the floor-based QB2 category, offering consistency more than upside.

J.K. Dobbins (11.8 projected W7 fpts) continues to hold his ground as a reliable, if unspectacular, RB2. Last week's quiet performance doesn't change the fact that he gets steady touches, and the home matchup against the Giants' defense is particularly friendly for running backs, keeping his fantasy outlook solid. Courtland Sutton (9.5 projected W7 fpts) enters Week 7 as a strong fantasy play, with analysts expecting him to bounce back against a vulnerable New York secondary.

For the Giants, Jaxson Dart (16.8 projected W7 fpts) has been a revelation to start his career, opening as QB10, QB20, and QB3 in his first three scoring weeks. Thursday's performance was his most impressive yet: he averaged 7.8 Y/A, went 7-of-9 for 11.0 Y/A on third downs generating six first downs, and added 58 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Dart has rushed for over 50 yards in each of his first three starts, joining Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts in that elite company. Even with his dynamic play, this remains a QB2 matchup due to Denver's stout defense.

Cam Skattebo (12.0 projected W7 fpts) has earned praise after his breakout, but Week 7 presents a tougher challenge. Denver's top-tier run defense, the potential return of Tyrone Tracy Jr., and a makeshift offensive line all create obstacles, suggesting a more tempered fantasy ceiling despite his increased role in the Giants' offense.

Broncos vs Giants Game Predictions

Denver enters this matchup fresh off an ugly but much-needed win over the Jets, even as their offense struggled to find any real rhythm. Meanwhile, New York is riding a wave of confidence after stunning the Eagles last Thursday and winning two of their last three. The Giants' attack, powered by Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo, has been firing on all cylinders, though their defense remains a glaring weak spot. That could open the door for Denver to move the ball effectively and turn this one into a bit of a shootout.

Still, it’s tough to bet against the Dart–Skattebo connection right now. Both offenses lean heavily on the ground game, which could slow the tempo and make possessions even more valuable. Expect a tightly contested battle that might come down to a single score, with each team grinding it out in a game where patience and execution could make all the difference.
