Easton Stick

29-Year-Old QuarterbackQB
Los Angeles Chargers
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Stick was mediocre at best after taking over in Week 14 last year after Justin Herbert was lost for the season. He finished with a 6.9 average target depth and 6.5 YPA with all three of his TD passes coming in his first start -- a 63-21 loss at the Raiders. He returns this season to back up Herbert again, though he will do so with an unimpressive group of receivers, and with new coach Jim Harbaugh and new running backs Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins, the Chargers are likely to be more run-heavy this season anyway. Stick’s mobility gives him a bit of upside (nearly 30 rushing yards per game last season), but if Herbert goes down again, the Chargers likely won’t ask Stick to do much. Read Past Outlooks

2019
Stick signed a modest one-year, $1.8 million deal this offseason presumably to back up Justin Herbert after spending his first couple of campaigns as the team's third-string option. As a result, the 2019 fifth-round pick has played just two regular-season snaps thus far in his NFL career, but he does have some notable positive traits, including a level of mobility that make him a dual-threat signal-caller. Now that Chase Daniel is no longer on the roster, expect Stick and 2023 rookie Max Duggan to compete for the top backup spot behind the Chargers' Pro Bowler.
Since being drafted in the fifth-round in 2019 by the Chargers, Stick has played just two snaps during his brief NFL career. With Justin Herbert emerging as one of the league's best quarterbacks and the team signing 12-year veteran Chase Daniel prior to the 2021 NFL season to be his backup, Stick is currently the third option under center for Los Angeles.
Stick made his first appearance in the NFL this past season since being drafted in the fifth round of the 2019 NFL Draft, completing one pass over the course of two snaps. The 25-year-old will now compete with veteran Chase Daniels for the top backup job behind the Chargers' rising young franchise quarterback, Justin Herbert.
A healthy scratch for the entirety of his rookie campaign, Stick's path to playing time took a major hit after the Chargers selected Justin Herbert No. 6 overall in the 2020 Draft. The 2019 fifth-round pick could ultimately see a second straight season as a third-string backup despite being on the NFL roster.
The 2019 fifth-rounder will compete with Tyrod Taylor and Cardale Jones for the Chargers' backup QB job behind Philip Rivers. Stick wasn't a particularly impressive passer during his collegiate career, failing to throw for over 3,000 yards in any of his three seasons as a starter. He did, however, run for over 600 yards each of those years and put together a respectable 5.9 yards per carry average. It's possible Stick could be used similar to how the Saints deploy Taysom Hill due to his unique athleticism, but it remains to be seen if the North Dakota State alum can be realistically expected to develop into Rivers' heir apparent.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely next man up if Herbert sits
QBLos Angeles Chargers
September 18, 2024
Head coach Jim Harbaugh said Wednesday that Easton Stick would likely start over Taylor Heinicke in Week 3 against the Steelers if Justin Herbert is forced to sit out due to an ankle injury, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Herbert suffered the ankle injury Week 2 against the Panthers, and though he never missed a snap and X-rays conducted Monday came back negative, the talented quarterback missed Wednesday's practice. Harbaugh said Wednesday that he still felt Herbert was more likely than not to play against Pittsburgh, but he acknowledged he would likely go with Stick over Heinicke if matters changed.
