Garrett Nussmeier fantasy outlook
Garrett Nussmeier enters the 2026 season with KC and ranks QB103 and #743 overall in the current Gridiron Value projection. The model projects 9.9 PPR points across 15.0 games, or 0.7 points per game, placing the expected outcome in a depth and watch-list tier. The preseason depth chart lists Garrett Nussmeier as QB3, so the opportunity forecast is tied to that current role rather than name value alone. There is not yet a complete recent NFL season in the data, so role, draft investment, and the current team environment carry more weight than player history. Projection confidence is 18%, with a 0% modeled chance of a Top-24 positional finish. The primary risk is earning enough weekly opportunity from a lower depth-chart position.
Week 3 projection
Garrett Nussmeier is projected for 0.1 PPR points on the road at MIA in week 3, with a likely range of 0.0 to 0.0.
