0:00Death, taxes, and high-volume rushing
0:02quarterbacks never busting in
0:04fantasyland. Pretty much never, guys.
0:06But seriously, 26 of 28 quarterbacks to
0:10have at least 100 rush attempts in a
0:11season over the last decade have
0:13returned top-12 fantasy numbers on a
0:15per-game basis. I'm not even doing that
0:17annoying thing that was a legend fantasy
0:19experts do, where we give you the totals
0:21per game, 93% hit rate. How can you
0:24complain about that? Of course, a lot of
0:26time these sorts of players are already
0:28really expensive in fantasy. Think about
0:30Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts and those
0:32types. However, in the year 2026,
0:34there's not one but two late-round
0:36quarterback options who fit this
0:37archetype. We have new Vikings
0:38quarterback Kyler Murray, who's always
0:40been a lethal rusher. What if KOC and
0:42Justin Jefferson bring out more of him
0:44as a passer? And also new Dolphins
0:46quarterback Malik Willis, who is
0:47absolutely lethal on the ground and
0:49figures to vie for the league lead at
0:51the position in terms of rushing
0:52attempts and yards. Don't be afraid to
0:54wait at QB this season and lean into one
0:56of the most tried and true trends that
0:58we have in all of fantasy football.
