Cam Ward continues to work out his quarterbacking demons in real time this season as the QB27 in fantasy points per game. He has only one game with more than 17 fantasy points. Among 29 qualifying passers, Ward has the fourth-lowest yards per attempt, the eighth-lowest passing success rate, the fourth-lowest aDOT, and the lowest highly accurate throw rate.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Ward's poor efficiency metrics make him a low-end QB2 despite Houston's weak pass defense.

Ward is QB27 in fantasy points per game with only one game exceeding 17 fantasy points. Among 29 qualifying passers, he ranks fourth-lowest in yards per attempt, eighth-lowest in passing success rate, fourth-lowest in aDOT, and lowest in highly accurate throw rate. Despite Houston's horrid pass defense allowing seventh-most EPA per dropback and tenth-most fantasy points per dropback, the Texans rank sixth-best in pressure rate, which could undermine Ward's production. He is a low-end QB2 this week.
