From the article

Herbert is an asset with his legs (he ranked second among QBs in rushing yards last season), and it's possible that he'll be better through the air in 2026 with Mike McDaniel calling the offense and with a healthier offensive line.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Herbert's rushing upside and McDaniel's offense could spark QB1 breakout.

Herbert has finished 10th or worse in fantasy points each of the last four seasons with only one career finish better than ninth (2021); however, a leap forward is possible in 2026 with Mike McDaniel calling the offense and a healthier offensive line. Herbert is an asset with his legs, ranking second among QBs in rushing yards last season.
