lot of that fantasy production came from nine rushing touchdowns in only 12 starts. As a passer, he threw for 2,272 yards and 15 touchdowns while averaging 6.7 yards per attempt, so I think there is more risk here than his draft price suggests. I have Dart down at QB15, and if those rushing touchdowns come back to earth, I think he has a tough time paying off a borderline QB1 price. The injury concerns are real too after five concussion checks last season, and he was already sent to the medical tent after taking a big hit in the preseason opener.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Tagovailoa's rushing TD regression risk and concussion history make him a QB15 bust candidate.

Tagovailoa's 2025 fantasy production was heavily dependent on nine rushing touchdowns in only 12 starts; as a passer, he threw for 2,272 yards and 15 touchdowns while averaging 6.7 yards per attempt. Justin Fuhr projects him at QB15 and warns that if those rushing touchdowns regress, he will struggle to justify his borderline QB1 draft price. Injury concerns are significant after five concussion checks last season, and he was sent to the medical tent after a big hit in the preseason opener.
