Declares for draft
Knox announced Monday via his personal Twitter account that he will forgo his remaining eligibility at Marshall to enter the 2021 NFL Draft.
ANALYSIS
In order to avoid a potential injury as he looks to begin his professional career, Knox will be sitting out Friday in Marshall's Camellia Bowl matchup with Buffalo. He turned in a strong junior season for the Thundering Herd, compiling 887 yards on the ground while finding the end zone 10 times. Sheldon Evans and Knowledge McDaniel are next up for carries out of the Marshall backfield.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2019
Knox was a true workhorse in his redshirt sophomore campaign, carrying the ball a whopping 270 times over 13 games. This largely paid off, as he finished with 1,387 rushing yards and 11 rushing touchdowns. Marshall had problems at quarterback, with Isaiah Green regressing and only completing 15 touchdown passes against 11 interceptions. Green may be back as the starter, which could mean an offense that relies on Knox again. He’s only entering his junior season, and he played sparingly as a redshirt freshman, so there should still be tread left on his tires. Knox has the makings of being a workhorse once more for the Thundering Herd.
