What His Career Numbers Say
Jefferson has averaged 5.0 fantasy points per game over 97 games and 7 seasons, without a top-12 season finish. The average hides two careers: 9.9 a game in his one season with a starter's volume, 4.0 in the six without it.
So far in 2026 he has 3 games (5.6 a game) against 16 appearances in 2025: too little on one side to call a trend. His quarterback this season has been Jayden Daniels.
