Mac Jones

QB · #36

SF · QB · Age 28

FLEX

Mac Jones's recent injury status and the team's head coach change signal a cautious approach, despite his established role on SF.

Role & volume

Jones has shown minimal rushing involvement in recent games, with carry shares ranging from 4.8% to 12%, indicating limited upside outside of passing production.

Projected role

As the QB for San Francisco, Jones is expected to maintain a full snap share and handle all passing duties, but his recent injury status and coaching change suggest potential volatility in performance.

Range (floor–ceiling)

Given our value rank of QB42, Jones projects as a FLEX option with a low floor due to injury concerns and a ceiling capped by his limited rushing upside and recent inconsistent production.

Risk & Opportunity Analysis (3 flags)

Risk Flags

Usage & Volume
Depth-chart data confirms Jones remains entrenched as SF's clear QB2 behind Brock Purdy, capping him to mop-up snaps in games Purdy finishes; game logs show only 5-15% snap shares in recent low-leverage weeks.
Injury Concerns
Jones has a history of knee (PCL) issues, including a re-aggravation during 2026 offseason work, though he has not missed games and enters the season healthy.

Opportunity Flags

Contract Situation
A revised, incentive-heavy deal covering the 2026 season signals SF views Jones as a top-tier backup option, giving him unusually stable job security for a QB2 heading into pending 2027 free agency.
