Justin Fields, Caleb Williams among breakout candidates

Don’t sweat the concerning August headlines; Fields is my guy this season. The Jets are clearly built to run the ball, and that should help Fields — one of just three NFL QBs ever to post a 1,000-yard rushing season — reach his full fantasy potential. Expect a lot of outside-zone runs, which play exactly to Fields’ strength. Not only that, but new Jets offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand spent the past five seasons on the Lions’ coaching staff. If his offense operates like Detroit’s did during his time there, I expect Fields won’t be asked to air it out as much as he was in Chicago, and that he will instead be expected to complete shorter passes, like he did last year in Pittsburgh, when he posted his best career metrics as a passer. In his six starts with the Steelers, Fields generated 18.89 fantasy points per game; if he’d kept at that pace over 17 games, he would have finished with the seventh-most fantasy points among QBs. He could potentially exceed that in the Jets’ offense this year.
