What happened: Tyler Shough retained first place in the Week 2 update. The result extends his Week 1 lead into the second week of the 2026 regular season.
Why it matters: Holding the lead through two weeks provides early separation in a ranking that often turns over weekly. Continued placement keeps the same Tyler Shough who opened Week 1 atop big-time throws in view for season-long tracking.
By the numbers: 35-of-56 for 410 yards with 3 touchdowns and 2 interceptions in Week 2, including 25-of-34 for 325 yards and 3 touchdowns after halftime.
What to watch: The Week 3 update will show whether the lead survives another slate of games.
