2024 Fantasy Outlook
Drones is an exciting centerpiece for Virginia Tech's offense in 2024. The Texas native burst onto the scene last season with a stellar 17:3 TD:INT ratio, which he paired with 2,903 all-purpose yards. After Grant Wells injured his ankle, Drones took the starting job and never looked back. The former Baylor Bear appeared to get better as the season wore on, and he should only continue to develop, as his top three receivers from last season, Da'Quan Felton, Jaylin Lane and Stephen Gosnell, return, and Ali Jennings is back after an early end to his 2024 campaign. Tyler Bowen's return as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks' coach should also aid his continued development. Drones did lose five fumbles as a ball carrier last season, but if he can keep his interception numbers down and continue to stress defenses with both his arm and legs, Jones will be a handful this fall and could stuff the stat sheet.

Unlikely to appear in bowl game
Drones (undisclosed) is not expected to suit up for the Duke's Mayo Bowl on Jan. 3, Andy Bitter of Tech Sidelines reports.
ANALYSIS
Drones has missed the last two games with an undisclosed injury, and he is unlikely to make a return for the Hokies' matchup against the Golden Gophers in the Duke's Mayo Bowl. The 6-foot-2 redshirt junior appeared in nine games this season, throwing for 1,562 yards (136-of-224), 10 touchdowns and six interceptions, adding on 337 yards and six scores with his legs. Drones announced his intentions to rejoin Virgina Tech during the 2024-25 season, but it either Collin Schlee (undisclosed) or William Watson will likely get the start for the Hokies against Minnesota.
