Bad NFL offenses can still yield fantasy football contributors
Summary

In a piece for Yahoo Sports, Justin Edwards analyzes the potential of players from struggling NFL offenses for the 2026 fantasy football season.

By examining the bottom five scoring offenses from the past five seasons, the report highlights how few produced top-tier fantasy players but suggests some archetypes remain worth considering. Edwards posits that volume-monopoly running backs are among the most reliable options despite tough offensive environments.
