Bryce Young vs Daniel Jones: Who Should You Start?
If you are choosing between Bryce Young and Daniel Jones for your lineup, you are not alone. Bryce Young finished the 2025 season at 14.3 PPG for the Carolina Panthers (16 games), and Daniel Jones averaged 18.0 for the Indianapolis Colts (13 games).
That 3.7-point weekly advantage for Daniel Jones is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both lean on arm talent and offensive scheme as traditional pocket passers. Bryce Young threw for 3011 yards and 23 touchdowns, while Daniel Jones posted 3101 yards and 19 scores. Volume, red zone efficiency, and game script are the key week-to-week differentiators when neither carries rushing upside.
Bryce Young has his bye in Week 11, and Daniel Jones rests in Week 14. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at quarterback for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
