What happened: Pro Football Focus graded Kyle Juszczyk at 65.8 on offense, the highest mark among NFL fullbacks in the 2026 regular season. Connor Heyward ranks third at 60.9 behind Juszczyk and Michael Burton, while Adam Prentice (57.7) and Hunter Luepke (55.9) complete the top five.

Why it matters: Only three fullbacks in the top five have cleared the 60.0 offensive grade threshold through the first two months of the 2026 campaign. The leaderboard spans veteran and younger options alike, from 2013 fourth-round selection Juszczyk and sixth-year pro Prentice to 2022 sixth-round pick Heyward and fourth-year back Luepke.

By the numbers: 2026 PFF fullback offensive grades: Kyle Juszczyk 65.8, Michael Burton 65.5, Connor Heyward 60.9, Adam Prentice 57.7, Hunter Luepke 55.9. A 0.3-point margin separates first and second place, followed by a 4.6-point gap to third and a 9.9-point

What to watch: Positional grades will update after Week 8 concludes as the 2026 regular season approaches its midpoint.
