MIAMI, Sept. 5 (UPI) -- Josh Allen and Joe Burrow lead my Top 20 fantasy football quarterback rankings for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL campaign.

Lamar Jackson, Baker Mayfield and Patrick Mahomes join Allen and Burrow inside my Top 5. Jayden Daniels, Kyler Murray, Tua Tagovailoa, Trevor Lawrence and Jordan Love are among my other Top 10 plays for Week 1.
