Bills QB Josh Allen fantasy football preview: Best player for 2026?
Bills star Josh Allen is expected to put up MVP-caliber numbers in 2026, making him perhaps the best QB to draft in fantasy football for next season.
Buffalo Bills' star quarterback Josh Allen is expected to have an MVP-level performance and contend for the top QB1 spot in fantasy football during the 2026 season. After playing well in the preseason, Allen may surpass 4,000 passing yards and dominate on the ground, making him a critical player for fantasy managers seeking a consistent, high-performing quarterback throughout the year. For more detailed projections, ESPN fantasy football is the source.
In the 2025 NFL season, Allen recorded 3,668 passing yards, a 25-10 touchdown-to-interception ratio, and 579 rushing yards and 14 rushing touchdowns, resulting in a total of 364.62 fantasy points in ESPN PPR leagues. For the 2026 season, Allen is projected to amass 3,945 passing yards, a 26-12 touchdown-to-interception ratio, along with 579 rushing yards and 12 rushing touchdowns, which should result in 369.21 fantasy points.
Considering Allen's projected status as the overall QB1 for the 2026 football season, there is a strong likelihood that he will achieve and potentially surpass this projection, ultimately scoring the highest number of fantasy points among his competitors in 2026.
