Josh Allen has done it again. Just a week after making history as the first quarterback to catch, rush, and throw for a touchdown in the same game, he has now become the first player to rush and throw for three touchdowns in a single game. This season, Allen is truly defining what it means to “put the team on his back.” His remarkable performances continue to elevate him in the fantasy football realm, making him an invaluable asset for fantasy managers heading into the playoffs.
Impressive Performances from Jalen Hurts
Jalen Hurts is another quarterback who delivered a jaw-dropping performance last week. Despite attempting only 21 passes and throwing for just 108 yards, Hurts managed to score an impressive 24.22 fantasy points. This marks his tenth consecutive game with 30 or fewer passing attempts, a feat that ranks as the third-longest streak in the last decade. Even with historically low passing volume, Hurts remains a high-end fantasy quarterback, showcasing his ability to produce points in unconventional ways.

Top Fantasy QB Picks for Week 15
Lamar Jackson is poised for a big week after coming off a bye. He’ll be eager to bounce back from the loss to the Eagles in Week 13, and with the struggling Giants on the horizon, this is a prime opportunity for him to shine. Even if Derrick Henry dominates the ground game, Jackson has the potential to rack up points early and establish a commanding lead. If you’re fortunate enough to have him on your roster, don’t overthink it—start him.
Jayden Daniels is another quarterback who should be on your radar. Fresh off a bye in his rookie season, he’s ready to showcase his dual-threat capabilities against the Saints. With the extra rest, he’ll have ample opportunities to remind everyone why he’s been a frontrunner for offensive rookie of the year. Expect a splashy performance that could light up your fantasy scoreboard.
Joe Burrow may not be in playoff contention, but that doesn’t diminish his fantasy value. As long as the Bengals keep him on the field, he’s likely to continue posting impressive numbers. The Titans’ defense has shown inconsistency, and with weapons like Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins at his disposal, Burrow is a must-start.
Waiver Wire Wonders for Week 15
While the Jets may struggle in the real world, Aaron Rodgers can still help you win in fantasy. He had his best game as a Jet last week, completing 27-of-39 passes for 339 yards and a touchdown. Rostered in just 35 percent of Yahoo! leagues, if he can perform against a tough Miami secondary, he should thrive against Jacksonville.
Jameis Winston is another name to consider. Rostered in 34 percent of leagues, he’s known for his aggressive passing style, leading to a boom-or-bust scenario. With upcoming matchups against Kansas City, Cincinnati, and Miami, Winston has the potential to deliver some high-scoring weeks.
Fantasy QB Sleepers to Watch
Sam Darnold started the season strong and made a statement last week against the Falcons, throwing for 347 yards and five touchdowns. The Bears may present a challenge, but Darnold has shown he can rise to the occasion. Meanwhile, Bryce Young is playing the best football of his career, with favorable matchups lined up during the fantasy playoffs. He’s someone to keep an eye on if you’re in need of quarterback help.
Injury Report: Key QB Injuries for Week 15
Injuries are a part of the game, and Week 15 brings some concerning news. Aidan O’Connell, who returned from a broken thumb, was carted off the field with a significant leg injury. Desmond Ridder is set to take over as the next man up for the Raiders.
Derek Carr also faced an unfortunate turn of events, exiting early due to a right hand injury that may result in a fracture. If Carr misses time, Jake Haener will step in, which could significantly impact the entire offense.
As we head into Week 15, keep an eye on these developments. The fantasy playoffs are heating up, and every decision counts!
