One of the best things about the NFL is that new stars emerge every season, and our team of experts called their shot on which ones will shine in 2026, at least on offense. The 2026 NFL All-Breakout Team is here , and it is absolutely loaded with talent.
One of the tightest votes came at the most high-profile position. Ultimately, Bears quarterback Caleb Williams got the nod over several worthy candidates. Williams led Chicago to its first playoff win since 2010 last season, and he's looking for more in 2026. Will the Bears finally get their first 4,000-yard passer?!
Zach Pereles lays out what we should expect from Williams in his third season.
Williams wasn't the only Bear on that list. Wide receiver Luther Burden III made the cut, too, and he has been soaring up fantasy football draft boards. Our own Heath Cummings is certainly a believer as he's labeled Burden a must-draft player .
Aaron Rodgers had his breakout moment a long time ago, and now he's chasing history. Here are the eight major milestones Rodgers can reach in his final NFL season.
The Big Ten is one of the two best college football conferences in the country, and it certainly has the most bona fide national title contenders.
With so much intrigue, our team of experts logged their 2026 Big Ten predictions , including the conference champion, most overrated team and most underrated team. Three different teams received first-place votes, and I don't exactly think I'm spoiling anything by revealing those:
Things get much more interesting right behind those juggernauts, and that's exactly where you'll find Washington . Our own Chris Hummer selected the Huskies as his most underrated team , and he cited coach Jedd Fisch as the biggest reason why the program could get over the hump this fall.
The one knock on the Big Ten is that the depth leaves a little to be desired, and there may be an explanation for that. There is a major money gap in the conference . Ohio State and Oregon are spending roughly $40 million on their rosters, but teams like Purdue and Maryland might be spending half of that.
