Expert
Pat Fitzmaurice FantasyPros	Over the last two years, CJ Stroud has been unable to match the splendor of his 2023 rookie season. Shoddy offensive line play was undoubtedly part of the problem in 2024. The Texans' O-line outperformed expectations in 2025, but Stroud was a league-average starter at best. As a rookie, Stroud threw for 4,108 yards and 23 touchdowns, with only five interceptions. He averaged 273.2 passing yards per game and 8.2 yards per pass attempt. In 31 starts over the last two seasons, Stroud has averaged 218.3 passing yards per game and 7.1 yards per attempt. His yearly finishes in fantasy points per game among QBs with at least nine starts: QB7, QB26, QB20. The Texans have worked on upgrading Stroud's offensive line, and Houston has a solid set of pass catchers led by WR Nico Collins. But with Houston having one of the NFL's top defenses, Stroud probably won't be presented with a lot of pass-happy game scripts. Consider Stroud a low-end QB in 2026 fantasy drafts.	After Kyler Murray sustained what proved to be a season-ending foot injury early last season, Jacoby Brissett took over as the Cardinals starting quarterback for the final 12 games of the year. While the Cardinals won only one of Brissett's starts, Brissett pumped life into the Arizona passing game, averaging 288 passing yards per start and throwing 23 TD passes and eight interceptions. Heavy passing volume helped. Brissett averaged 40.3 pass attempts per start, and the Cardinals led the NFL in pass attempts. Brissett is expected to open the 2026 season as the Cardinals' starter, although Arizona drafted Carson Beck at the top of the third round. The Cardinals have a nice set of pass catchers with TE Trey McBride and WRs Marvin Harrison Jr and Michael Wilson. But with the Cardinals' passing volume likely to regress, and with the likelihood that Beck gets an audition at some point this season, Brissett is a risky fantasy play for anyone inclined to chase his 2025 numbers.
