Dual-threat QB starter for Dolphins with 44.8 rushing yards per game upside

Malik WillisQB

QB sleeper rank 2 who gets a chance to prove himself as a starter for the Dolphins after being cast aside by the Titans and rejuvenated as a backup with the Packers; signed to a three-year, $67 million contract in March. Willis is an electric runner; in six career starts, he has averaged 44.8 rushing yards per game and has run for four touchdowns. Willis seems to have made considerable strides as a passer; over 11 appearances and three starts in Green Bay in 2024 and 2025, he completed 78.7% of his throws and averaged 10.9 yards per pass attempt, with six TD passes and zero interceptions. Willis will be hard-pressed to match that passing efficiency with the Dolphins, who might have the worst collection of pass catchers in the league, but his running ability should make him fantasy-viable even if his passing numbers are mediocre.
