He took pressure on 24.3% of dropbacks, was charted with a bad throw on 17.5% of attempts, lost four fumbles, and averaged 4.0 yards a carry with 13th-percentile yards after contact when he ran, so neither the passing nor the scrambling generated much on its own. His 87.8 passer rating landed in the bottom third, and a 6.9 aDOT keeps the whole operation shallow. Priced at QB27 near pick 172, he is being drafted as superflex filler, which the profile supports. The touchdown rate is the one thing propping the points up, and touchdown rate is the least stable stat on the sheet, so even a repeat of 14.2 a game requires the part of his 2025 most likely to move to hold still.", "writeup_generated_at": "2026-07-22T02:44:42.345573+00:00", "news": { "digest": "Bryce Young (knee) off injury report Sunday — Young received a precautionary MRI at the start of the week.
