Mac Jones is the San Francisco 49ers number 10 quarterback, a 5-year pro, and finished the 2025 regular season as a streaming-viable fantasy option at his position. He averaged 12.4 fantasy points per game across 11 appearances, which ranks him 33rd among quarterbacks in our 2026 draft board. That per-game number is the starting point for every start or sit decision you make with him in 2026.
On the production side, Mac Jones finished 2025 with 2,151 passing yards and 13 touchdowns. He offers minimal rushing upside, which means his fantasy ceiling is tied directly to passing volume and game script.
Mac Jones lives and dies with passing volume, so his week-to-week fantasy performance tracks game script closely. In shootouts he hits ceiling games. In ground-and-pound matchups his fantasy output gets capped. Streamers love this profile because the volatility cuts both ways, but set-and-forget managers tend to prefer steadier options.
Heading into 2026, Mac Jones projects as a core piece of the San Francisco 49ers offense. Managers drafting him need to plan around his Week 9 bye and monitor training camp reports for role changes.
