The NFL season is in full swing, and it’s time to set your lineups for Week 11 of the fantasy football season. Kyler Murray, Baker Mayfield, Daniel Jones, and Bryce Young are on a bye this week, while Trevor Lawrence is unlikely to play with a shoulder injury. Below are the quarterback rankings, tiers, and analysis to help you navigate your lineup decisions for Week 11.
Quarterback Rankings for Week 11 Fantasy Football
Tier 1: Superstar Quarterbacks
1. Jalen Hurts
2. Josh Allen
3. Lamar Jackson
4. Jayden Daniels
5. Joe Burrow
Hurts has been on a tear recently, having four straight top-four weekly fantasy finishes among quarterbacks. He has scored at least 29 fantasy points three weeks in a row. Hurts has eight rushing touchdowns in the last four weeks. The Eagles have a massive game in the NFC East on Thursday Night Football against the Washington Commanders. The Commanders have a better defense than expected but Hurts’ rushing ability puts him on top of the quarterback rankings for Week 11.
Burrow has been great in the last two weeks, finishing as the top fantasy quarterback two weeks in a row. He torched the Ravens defense for 428 passing yards and four passing touchdowns, after throwing for five touchdowns in the previous week. He has a much tougher matchup against the Chargers in Week 11, but Burrow’s hot streak keeps him in the top tier of the quarterback rankings.
Tier 2: Mid to Low-End QB1s
6. Jared Goff
7. Brock Purdy
8. Russell Wilson
9. Justin Herbert
10. Patrick Mahomes
11. Bo Nix
12. Jordan Love
Goff struggled mightily, throwing five interceptions in the victory over the Texans. This snapped a streak of five straight games without a pick for Goff. This was just a bad game for Goff, and he will bounce back with a great matchup against the Jaguars next week. Expect Goff to get back on track in Week 11.
Wilson threw for three touchdowns in the Steelers Week 10 victory and finished as a top-ten fantasy quarterback for the second time in his three starts. Wilson has a great matchup in Week 11 against the Ravens, who just allowed over 30 fantasy points to Burrow. Overall, the Ravens have given up the second most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks on the season. Expect Wilson to continue his hot stretch in this big showdown for first place in the AFC North.
Herbert got off to a slow start this season, failing to finish as a top-20 fantasy quarterback for the first five games of the season. However, he has finished as a top-12 quarterback in each of the last three weeks. He has two total touchdowns in three straight games. He has a great matchup in Week 11 against the Bengals, who are in the top five for most fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks. Fire Herbert up as a top-ten quarterback this week.
Tier 3: Mid-Tier QB2s
13. C.J. Stroud
14. Derek Carr
15. Geno Smith
16. Sam Darnold
Carr was great in Week 10, scoring 20.46 fantasy points and finishing as a top ten fantasy quarterback, even with multiple of his top receivers on IR. He hit two deep balls to Marquez Valdes-Scantling, accounting for over 100 yards on his day. Carr has a favorable matchup against the Browns secondary, putting him in the QB2 conversation for Week 11.

Darnold has slowed down after his great start to the season. He was only able to score 6.44 fantasy points against the Jaguars, who are the worst fantasy defense against quarterbacks. Darnold has thrown five interceptions over the last two weeks after throwing just five in the first seven games. Darnold is no longer a must-start in fantasy but remains a top-20 option in deeper and superflex leagues for Week 11.
Tier 4: Streaming Options
17. Tua Tagovailoa
18. Drake Maye
19. Kirk Cousins
20. Matthew Stafford
21. Jameis Winston
Maye has continued to play solid to start his career, finishing as a top 20 fantasy quarterback in four of his five starts. He has had some tough matchups over the last couple of weeks but has fought through them. His rushing upside gives him streaming potential every week.
Winston is coming off his bye week, and there have been mixed results in his first two games as a starter for the Browns. He has thrown over 40 pass attempts in each start while throwing four touchdowns but three interceptions. He has no fear of slinging the ball around. Even against a good Saints defense, Winston is a potential streaming option for Week 11.
