Passive player is acting aggressive. Should be relatively easy to range him.
Medium PP+, big suited broadway (dependent of how he perceives their value), big ace.
Bad player switching gear: draw or nutted hand.
Consider the board is relatively dry, he would most certainly slowplay the very top of his range.
What about over pair? V might slowplay KK+ because there aren't that many obvious scared cards, but again, high variance without better read. Nevertheless, a moot point in this spot because it is still better than our hand and unlikely folding.
Draws? There are really no draws other than JTs, and even though it is rather high variance spot to put JTs in V's range preflop, there are only 2 remaining combos - moot point.
What about over cards? Sure, he's likely to peel one off.

I'll go to nutted hand last.
Two combos of JTs got there, and the likelihood of c/c vs CR with JT is probably 1:9. Backdoor flush is now possible, and he probably doesn't want the board to pair given size of your turn bet (big bet/big hand).
Over cards? Always folding at this point and certainly never c/c, unless of course he turned flush draw.
KK+? Will likely just call, but again, moot point against our hand.
Set? MUBS is creeping in. Passive players play the way they do is because they always remember losing to nutted hands.

Bad players' typical thought process: I don't want you to check behind when I have the nuts.
Easy fold. I can't rationalize any combos in V's range that we can beat other than maybe 3 combos of KQ/AQ/AKdd.
6:3 is slightly +EV to call, and 6:2 or worse would make this a pretty expensive call. Either way, I think this spot is very thin if profitable at all.
