FantasyPros Articles on Malik Willis

Willis projects as QB1 with rushing upside if Miami utilizes his legs.

Willis has been QB7 in fantasy points per game since Week 5, though last week his production fell back to Earth as his rushing disappeared (one carry, two yards). The source expresses frustration that Miami isn't utilizing his legs and talents as a runner on a weekly basis, noting his weekly volatility with rushing will help or hurt his fantasy output. Willis has three games where he hasn't managed more than 12 rushing yards this season. Since Week 5, among 32 qualifying passers, Willis has shown growth as a passer, ranking 16th in yards per attempt, ninth in passing success rate, seventh in highly accurate throw rate, and 16th in catchable target rate. Willis could post another QB1 outing this week. Detroit has allowed the 14th-most yards per attempt, sixth-highest passing touchdown rate, fourth-highest passing success rate, and 12th-highest CPOE over their last five games.
