2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Tennessee offense under head coach Josh Huepel has become a bankable asset for fantasy production, especially from the quarterback spot. It helped Hendon Hooker go from an afterthought of a transfer from Virginia Tech to Heisman frontrunner at one point. Now, the keys have been turned over to Iamaleava, the No.2 overall recruit in the class of 2023. In his lone start as a freshman in the bowl game against Iowa, he went 12-for-19 for 151 yards and a touchdown and added three scores on the ground. Iamaleava is the most talented quarterback to come through Knoxville in some time, and with the Heupel offense in place, this first-year starter should be one of the top fantasy producers at his position.

Struggles in CFP loss to Ohio State
Iamaleava was 14-for-31 passing for 104 yards during Saturday's 42-17 defeat versus Ohio State. He also had 20 rushes for 47 yards with two touchdowns.
ANALYSIS
Iamaleava didn't end his season the way he'd have liked, posting a season-low 45.2 completion percentage, and he had an up-and-down season as the Vols' full-time starter in 2024, completing 63.7 percent of his 333 pass attempts for 2,614 yards and a 19:5 TD:INT ratio, adding 109 carries for 364 yards and a touchdown as a rusher. He'll enter 2025 presumably locked in as the starter under center for the Vols despite the disappointing end to the season.
