STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jones' immobility and poor mechanics make him low-end QB2 despite favorable matchup.

Jones continues to look like a statue in the pocket for the Colts as QB36 in fantasy points per game; he hasn't been able to move in the pocket and looks like 2025 Kirk Cousins. Among 29 qualifying passers, Jones has the second-fewest yards per attempt, third-lowest aDOT, lowest deep ball rate, and ninth-highest turnover-worthy play rate. The source has zero faith that Jones can take advantage of a nice matchup this week after last week's face plant against the Commanders. Pittsburgh has allowed the sixth-most yards per attempt, fifth-highest passing success rate, and 12th-highest CPOE. Jones is a low-end QB2 again this week.
