facing the Browns, Broncos and Patriots in the first three weeks. Each one of those defenses finished last year as one of the top-12 hardest matchups for fantasy QBs

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Lawrence faces Browns, Broncos, Patriots in weeks 1-3; all top-12 QB defenses despite hot finish.

Lawrence finished 2025 as a top-five QB in four of his last five outings but faces a daunting early-season gauntlet with the Browns, Broncos, and Patriots in weeks 1-3; each of those defenses finished last year as one of the top-12 hardest matchups for fantasy QBs, and Sharp Football Analysis ranks all three secondaries as top-10 units entering the season. Even the Bengals, who were generous last year, project to be more difficult moving forward. The silver lining is Lawrence has the fourth-easiest fantasy schedule for the whole season, so as long as he survives the daunting start, the wind will be at his back the rest of the way.
