Caleb Williams vs Jaxson Dart: The Full Breakdown
The gap between Caleb Williams and Jaxson Dart is smaller than most fantasy managers think. Separated by just 1.4 PPG in 2025, this is one of those quarterback decisions that comes down to context, not name recognition. Caleb Williams averaged 18.7 PPG with the Chicago Bears across 17 games, and Jaxson Dart posted 17.3 with the New York Giants in 14.
When two quarterbacks are separated by less than two points per game, the decision shifts to weekly context. Who has the softer defense? Who is trending up over the last month? Which team is projected for more total points? Those are the tiebreakers that actually matter.
Jaxson Dart offers meaningful rushing upside with 487 yards on the ground in 2025, which separates his floor from a pocket passer like Caleb Williams (3942 passing yards, 27 touchdowns). In games where the passing matchup looks ugly, that rushing production can be the entire difference on a start/sit call.
Caleb Williams has his bye in Week 10, and Jaxson Dart rests in Week 8. 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.
