Patrick Mahomes completed 19 of 33 passes for 165 yards and an INT, adding 14 yards on the ground. His 6.0 PPR was the second-lowest output of his 10-year career and left him outside QB2 range in Week 7 for the first time this season.
2026 Fantasy Football Impact: QB1, But Matchup Matters
Mahomes struggled against a Seahawks defense that had allowed the second fewest points to QBs while his top WR Rashee Rice remained out with a hamstring and knee injury. He passed for a season-low 165 yards and failed to record a TD.
It marks the second straight week that he’s thrown an INT without a TD, with the first coming against a Chargers defense that’s allowed the seventh-fewest points to QBs in Rice’s initial game sidelined.
He still ranks as a QB1, with the eighth-highest adjusted yards per attempt on the season, but he isn't matchup-proof.
Mahomes hasn’t gone three straight games without a 12+ PPR performance in his career, but that will be tested against a Broncos defense in Week 8 that’s allowing the 12th-fewest points to QBs.
