Injured QBs Shake Up Fantasy Football Future: Will Mahomes and Daniels’ Setbacks Rewrite the 2026 Playbook?
However, most passers coming off serious knee injuries aren’t as aggressive running the ball the following season.
I’m projecting Mahomes outside of the top-12 until we get a more clear timeline for his recovery, but regardless you should be lowering your expectations for him in 2026.
Jayden Daniels, Commanders
Injury: Elbow dislocation (December)
Boone’s redraft ranking: QB5
Fantasy Outlook: Daniels’ elbow shouldn’t be a problem in 2026, but his thin frame and aggressive running style will continue to add risk to his fantasy profile.
