WAS QB Jayden Daniels - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs Atlanta Falcons

Jayden Daniels had himself a day in Week 16 against the Eagles, tossing a career-high five touchdowns while adding 81 yards on the ground on his way to 34.4 fantasy points. Daniels has multiple passing touchdowns in four straight games and has rushed for at least 66 yards in three of his last four. He finds himself in a potential eruption spot against the Falcons in Week 17, with the Falcons ranking 29th in aFPA to quarterbacks this season. Daniels is an elite option in fantasy title week.

WAS QB Jayden Daniels - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs Philadelphia Eagles

Week 16 against the Eagles is not the friendliest matchup for Jayden Daniels, or his fantasy managers, considering the Eagles rank first in aFPA to quarterbacks this season. Daniels has shown that he can deliver, even in less-than-ideal circumstances, and can still be projected as a QB1 in the most crucial late-season clash between these sides in more than two decades.

WAS QB Jayden Daniels - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at New Orleans Saints

Jayden Daniels has emerged from his fantasy slumber over his last three games, averaging two passing scores and almost eight rushing attempts per game. That’s the good stuff, and we can expect some more of the same against the Saints in Week 15. The Saints rank 22nd in aFPA to quarterbacks this season, which should help Daniels put up high-end QB1 numbers.

WAS QB Jayden Daniels - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs Tennessee Titans

Week 12 was a welcome return to form for Jayden Daniels, who has run somewhat cold over the last few weeks. Daniels is the QB6 in fantasy points per game in 2024 but over the last four weeks, he’s been the QB14. He should be able to build on his strong outing against the Cowboys with a matchup against the Titans this week. The Titans rank 23rd in aFPA to quarterbacks in 2024. Daniels can be started as a solid QB1 in Week 13.

WAS QB Jayden Daniels - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs Dallas Cowboys

It’s been a quiet few weeks in fantasy for Jayden Daniels, who is the QB7 in points per game despite only averaging 16 points in the last four weeks. Assuming he is fully healthy, which his coach is insisting upon, Daniels should be able to return to form in Week 12 with the listing Dallas Cowboys on deck. The Cowboys have been an everything funnel this season and rank 27th in aFPA to quarterbacks. Daniels projects as a mid-tier QB1 this week.

WAS QB Jayden Daniels - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Philadelphia Eagles

Week 10 was something of a disappointment for Jayden Daniels and his fantasy managers. The Commanders' rookie stud finished as the QB21, a long way off his seasonal average of QB6 in points per game. He doesn't seem to be getting work around the goal line, which has had a massive knock on his fantasy output of late. The Eagles have shut down fantasy quarterbacks this season and rank fourth in aFPA to passers. Daniels is still a high-end QB1 projection in Week 11, but a few touchdowns wouldn't hurt.

WAS QB Jayden Daniels - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs Pittsburgh Steelers

The strong play of rookie sensation Jayden Daniels has translated into fantasy success, with the Commanders quarterback sitting at QB4 in points per game in 2024. His ability to influence the game as a passer and a runner should allow him to remain a high-end fantasy option despite a tough matchup against a Steelers team that ranks third in aFPA to quarterbacks. It'll be tough, but if you have Daniels you are not benching him this week.
