Jacoby Brissett — 2026 Fantasy Outlook

The case for drafting him

Brissett's 2025 season was the most complete of his recent career: 485 pass attempts, 315 completions, 3,366 passing yards, 23 passing touchdowns, and 168 rushing yards on 38 carries. That is a full-season workload with a legitimate touchdown total. He added a rushing touchdown and showed enough mobility to contribute on the ground, something the three-year averages confirm — 18.7 rush attempts and 83 rush yards per season across 2023–2025. For a drafter who needs a late-round or streaming quarterback, the 2025 production line is the argument.

What the model projects

The projection is 166.8 half-PPR fantasy points. Brissett ranks QB26 at the position and #458 overall, placing him in Tier 9. His draft value is -100.6, meaning the projection sits below replacement level at the quarterback position on a 12-team half-PPR baseline.

The range of outcomes

The three-year aggregate (2023–2025) shows how wide Brissett's season-to-season variance can be: pass attempts ranged from 23 in 2023 to 485 in 2025, and passing touchdowns ranged from 2 in 2024 to 23 in 2025. The 2024 line — 161 attempts, 826 yards, 2 touchdowns — sits at the opposite end of the spectrum from 2025. That spread is the honest picture of his outcome range. A season closer to 2025 looks very different from a season closer to 2024, and both are part of his recent history.

How to draft him

Brissett is not being drafted consistently enough across platforms to carry a market ADP. That means there is no pick cost to plan around — he is effectively a free agent on draft day. At QB26 and #458 overall in Tier 9, he profiles as a late-round handcuff or a post-draft addition rather than a planned roster slot. His bye is Week 14, which falls during the fantasy playoff window in most leagues — factor that into any streaming calculus.

Questions drafters ask

Is Brissett worth a roster spot in a 12-team league?

He ranks QB26 and #458 overall with a draft value of -100.6, putting him below replacement level on a 12-team half-PPR baseline. He has no market ADP, meaning he is not being drafted consistently enough to have one. He is a streaming option, not a planned starter.

What did Brissett actually do in 2025?

He completed 315 of 485 pass attempts for 3,366 yards and 23 touchdowns against 8 interceptions, adding 168 rushing yards and 1 rushing touchdown on 38 carries. He also fumbled 5 times, losing 4.

How consistent has Brissett been over the past three seasons?

Very inconsistent. His three-year averages (2023–2025) are 223 pass attempts, 1,472 passing yards, 9.3 passing touchdowns, and 83 rushing yards per season — heavily skewed by a limited 2023 (23 attempts) and a partial 2024 (161 attempts) against a full 2025 (485 attempts).

When do I have to draft Brissett?

He has no market ADP — he is not being drafted consistently enough across platforms to produce one. There is no pick you need to spend to secure him on draft day.
