The Fantasy Football season is just two weeks old, but if you have not won yet, it may be time to panic. Our fantasy football quarterback rankings for Week 3 are here after a dominant week for offense in Week 2. Did a disappointing week from Josh Allen knock him out of the top spot? Where does Drake Maye end up after a solid performance against the Miami Dolphins?
There are no byes in Week 3, so every team is available in fantasy football. But Joe Burrow’s turf toe injury will cost him three months, so you need a new quarterback if you spent an early pick on Burrow. The Bengals are rolling with Jake Browning, who likely is not a fantasy option.
Who should you pick up if Burrow is your quarterback? What if Jayden Daniels or JJ McCarthy misses Week 3 with an injury? Here are the quarterback rankings to give you a leg up.
Lamar Jackson slips back into the top spot of the fantasy football quarterback rankings after dominating the Cleveland Browns’ defense. While Josh Allen won the real-life matchup between the two, Jackson continues putting up video game numbers.

Allen does not fall far, sliding in here at number two after being shut out of the end zone in Week 2. He came out of the game for two plays in the second quarter due to a bloody nose, but he returned. The Jets were so bad in this game that Allen did not have to do much to secure the 20-point lead.

Jalen Hurts barely cracked 100 yards and scored just one touchdown in the Philadelphia Eagles’ win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. But no one behind him broke down the door to be in the top three of the fantasy football rankings. The tush push worked to perfection to secure six points for the Eagles and your fantasy team.
After throwing for over 400 yards on Sunday, Russell Wilson is likely to keep the New York Giants’ starting job. Jaxson Dart was banging down the door after Week 1, but a historic performance should keep the veteran in the big chair. Wilson found both Wan’Dale Robinson and Malik Nabers for over 100 yards, which could continue against the Chiefs.
You may be skeptical that the Indianapolis Colts are playoff contenders, and that is fair. But in Week 3, Daniel Jones is a solid fantasy football depth option. He is going against a Tennessee Titans defense that has struggled so far this season, and Jones has put up historic numbers so far. This may not be a long-term option, but if you are in a pinch with the Daniels or Burrow injuries, Jones is a...
