4 years agoDenver Broncos linebacker Bradley Chubb (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest versus the Chargers. The absence will be the first of the year for Chubb, who was named to the Pro Bowl after accumulating 42 combined tackles, 19 quarterback hits, 7.5 sacks, and a forced fumble in his first 14 games. Look for Anthony Chickillo to see an increased role without Chubb in the mix. The Broncos Defense was already facing an uphill battle to fantasy relevance in Week 16 by going up against Los Angeles, but without Chubb on the field, the group can be safely avoided in all season-long formats. Chubb's next chance to return comes next Sunday against Las Vegas.--Jesse Borek
