Justin Fields Could Still Be Worth Stashing in Deeper Leagues

Wednesday, July 22, 11:34 AM

As he enters his sixth season in 2026, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Justin Fields will be suiting up for his fourth NFL team. The 27-year-old opened the 2025 season as the starter for the New York Jets, but he struggled mightily across nine starts before eventually being benched. At this point, the high-end prospect pedigree that followed Fields in the early portion of his career is likely gone. Still, Fields has proven to be an elite rushing quarterback when given the chance to play, which allows him to maintain some fantasy appeal. Across 59 career NFL games (53 starts), Fields has rushed for nearly 2,900 yards and 23 touchdowns. As long as Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) stays healthy this season, Fields has no path to fantasy production. However, with Mahomes returning from a torn ACL, Fields could be worth targeting in the late rounds of deeper two-quarterback leagues as a handcuff option.

Drew Allar a Worthy Dynasty Stash Candidate Given Long-Term Starter Upside

Wednesday, June 17, 8:11 AM

Entering his rookie season, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Drew Allar is buried on his team's depth chart behind veteran signal-callers Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph. However, Allar could be well-positioned for the long term in Pittsburgh, as Rodgers has said he plans to retire following the 2026 season and Rudolph profiles as a career backup. Allar had his senior season at Penn State in 2025 cut short by an ankle injury, but he threw for 3,327 yards and 24 touchdowns while rushing for 302 yards and six scores across 16 games as a junior in 2024. The injury and concerns about his throwing mechanics caused Allar to fall to the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, but he won't be pressed into immediate service with the Steelers and will be given time to develop. In deeper dynasty formats, Allar profiles as a worthy stash candidate for his potential starting upside in Pittsburgh in 2027 and beyond.
