STACKED’s take
Young's 324 YDS/game, 3 TDs, 63% comp rate marks dramatic improvement over career averages.
Young has posted dramatic statistical improvements in his first two games of 2026: 324 passing yards per game (vs. 180 career average), 3 TDs per game (vs. 1 career), 0.5 INTs per game (vs. 0.65 career), 63% completion (vs. 58% career), and 8.86 Y/A (vs. 6 career). The source notes he is passing the eye test at a level many had given up on, with improvements in pocket presence, movement, vision, demeanor, and touch. The source frames this as a potential franchise-quarterback trajectory if sustained, though cautioning that two games against poor defenses (Falcons and Bears) is a small sample. The source's optimism hinges on whether Young maintains this pace through the season and against better competition (Browns, Lions).
