Finding each season's deep sleepers is one of the favorite activities for fantasy football fans. Identifying 2022 fantasy football breakouts can also lead to a championship-caliber roster. Breakouts are the players with opportunity or other factors that can lead to a huge bump in production. Being proactive and targeting these players can lead to massive draft-day value.

Here are some players that have the potential to break out in 2022.

Tua Tagovailoa (QB) Miami Dolphins
This one is a no-brainer. The Dolphins drastically improved their offensive line this offseason, most notably adding elite tackle Terron Armstead and guard Connor Williams. If the line gels, it will make all the difference in the world after being the worst line in the NFL last season. On top of that, they also added Tyreek Hill and Cedrick Wilson at wide receiver. With elite weapons like Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Mike Gesicki, and an improved line a monumental improvement from Tua seems inevitable. Perhaps more important than all of that is Mike McDaniels implanting his system that looked so great in San Francisco.  

Trevor Lawrence (QB) Jacksonville Jaguars
Despite a miserable rookie season, I still believe in Lawrence’s talent. I like him enough to put him on this list over the likes of Trey Lance and Justin Fields. While I don’t love anything the Jags did this offseason in terms of it bringing any sort of long-term success to the organization in real life, the situation has improved for Lawrence’s fantasy outlook. The team invested in the offense haphazardly, but still improved the line while adding weapons like Christian Kirk and Evan Engram. While those aren’t world-beaters, it’s better than what he was working with last season. The addition of the next guy on this list may be the biggest benefit of them all though.
