Jackson's injury-plagued 2025 sets up major rebound; new receivers and OC support.

Jackson ranked 16th in PPG among QBs in 2025 with fewer than 200 passing yards per game and career-low 26.8 rushing yards per game, largely due to minor injuries including a hamstring injury in October. Before the October injury, he threw 10 TDs in four games while averaging 41.5 rushing yards per game; after returning in Week 9, he threw just 11 TDs in nine games and averaged 20.3 rushing yards per game. His 16.5 PPG in 2025 were his fewest as a starter by a significant margin—he topped 19 PPG every other year after his rookie season and averaged 25.3 just one year prior. Heading into 2026, Jackson should be healthy with new rookie receivers Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt, and a new OC (Ben Johnson disciple Declan Doyle replacing Todd Monken). The source projects a near-guaranteed rebound with the main question being how high he bounces back.
