Avery Johnson

QuarterbackQB
2024 Fantasy Outlook
The time has come for Johnson to establish himself as the future of Kansas State. The youngster flashed in his true freshman season, including five rushing touchdowns at Texas Tech in Week 7 of the 2023 season. Johnson was understandably not yet ready for a full-time role and split reps with Will Howard, who has since left for the starting job at Ohio State. If Johnson's accuracy and understanding of the playbook have improved, watch out. He could be a fantasy dynamite with a true dual-threat skillset. In just eight games with limited snaps last year, Johnson posted 12 total touchdowns. Johnson could be in for a monster season with the Wildcats if extrapolated over an entire season in as a full-time starter. Read Past Outlooks
Costly turnovers in loss
November 3, 2024
Johnson was 23-for-39 passing for 238 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 24-19 loss to Houston. He also had eight rushes for 18 yards.
ANALYSIS
Johnson committed two turnovers for the second time this season, the other instance occurring in Week 4 at BYU. The outcomes in both of those games didn't bode well for the Wildcats. The most surprising stat was that Johnson managed just 18 rushing yards against Houston. Johnson entered the season with a lot of dual-threat hype, however, he's averaged just 43.4 rushing yards per game and has just four scores on the ground. Kansas State is on a bye before playing Arizona State.
