He averaged 23.9 fantasy points in the games Joe Alt played, and now Alt and Rashawn Slater are back with Mike McDaniel running the offense.

Justin Herbert finishes 2026 as the overall QB1 in fantasy football. Herbert has already thrown for 5,000 yards and added a career-high 498 rushing yards in 2025 despite playing behind an injured offensive line. He averaged 23.9 fantasy points in the games Joe Alt played. With Alt and Rashawn Slater back and Mike McDaniel running the offense, Justin Fuhr projects Herbert will get more of the passer we saw early in his career without losing what he added as a runner, enough to outcore Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, and every other quarterback. Herbert is currently ranked around QB8, making this a significant swing.
