Broncos vs. Titans finish off Week 1 in the second game of a Monday Night Football doubleheader. Courtland Sutton is questionable, which is worrisome for season-long leagues, but in DraftKings Showdown contests, we can take advantage of that with ourDFS lineup picks.
Our lineup goes in on the Clark Griswold Jersey Denver pa sing attack and grabs both parts of Tenne see's offense, too. We didn't touch the Broncos' running game, which could backfire, but it just seems a bit too unpredictable right now. And if you're reading this shortly before kickoff and Sutton is active, you could pivot our captain choice to Sutton himself, asthe questionable tag normally greatly Brent Seabrook Jersey depre ses ownership in Showdown contests.

DraftKings Showdown Picks: Broncos vs. TitansCAPTAIN (1.5x points, 1.5x price):QB Drew Lock, Broncos ($14,400)
Frankly, I'm playing Lock as captain because, while I feel OK about Denver's offense in this game, I have no read on exactly how things will play out. Captaining Lock hopefully covers most of the bases. He's also a sneaky fantasy play in general because of his willingne s to Jordan Oesterle Jersey run, too.
FLEX: RB Derrick Henry, Titans ($11,600)
If there's one thing we know about Tenne see's offense, it's that Henry will get a lot of handoffs. In a game that feels uncertain acro s the board, locking Henry into our lineup is the easiest thing we do today.
MNF INJURY UPDATES: |
FLEX: QB Ryan Tannehill, Titans ($10,000)
Tannehill's ownership sometimes trends low, even in these single-game contests, because of the Titans' Gustav Forsling Jersey lack of pa sing. Tannehill was remarkably efficient last year, and now he's gothis big contract. With a couple deep threats making the play-action game a major weapon, Tannehill can still have a goodgame even if Henry dominates.
FLEX: WR Jerry Jeudy, Broncos ($7,200)
Jeudy was one of college football's best wideouts for a few years at Alabama. He has game-breaking speed and precise route-running ability, but there's also been no preseason. So, yes, there's risk here. But we need to give our QB captain a couple of his targets to have that choice pay off, and with Courtland Sutton's injury worries, Jeudy becomes our guy.
FLEX: TE Noah Fant, Broncos ($6,200)
The Titans were a bottom five team at defending TEs in 2019, and Fant Keith Magnuson Jersey has the type of athleticism that could burn Tenne see again. We know Denver likes to give him the ball, even giving him carries in 2019. Lock and Fant showed a good enough connection that we CM Punk Jersey can feel comfortable completing our Denver pa sing stack with Fant.
FLEX: WR Kalif Raymond, Titans ($200)
The last time Raymond made a Sporting News Showdown lineup, he was part of a tournament-winning group. When Raymond is on the field, he's going deep. With Tenne see's already mentioned play-action dominance, all it takes is one play for Raymond to look like the steal of the night at minimum price.
