Verdict history

Week	Verdict	Reason
2026 Week 3	Sit· high	Dart is believed to have a sprained MCL and ESPN reports Jameis Winston starts in his place going forward — the 20.4 projection is stale.
2026 Week 2	Start· medium	QB9 consensus at 18.2 projected points with a locked starting job — only 12 QBs start, and chase mode as an 8.5-point dog adds volume.
2026 Week 1	Start· medium	QB9 consensus with an 18.5-point projection and a locked starting job in a near-pick'em game — comfortable QB1 play in 12-team formats.
