2024 Rush/Rec Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Following Sean Tyler's departure via the transfer portal to Minnesota after the 2022 season, there was uncertainty about who would claim the starting role in the Broncos' backfield. Those questions were answered emphatically in Week 1, with Buckley toting the rock 30 times for 194 yards and a touchdown. Despite missing a game, Buckley broke through the 1,000-yard barrier in the final game of the season, totaling 189 carries for 1,003 yards and 10 touchdowns. His production down the stretch, notching 75 carries for 36 yards and five touchdowns in the final four games, bodes well for another big season in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Playing Saturday
Buckley (undisclosed) is active for Saturday's game against Ball State, Kyle Smedley of The Ball State Daily News reports.
ANALYSIS
Buckley will officially return to action for the first time since the season opener against Wisconsin. The redshirt sophomore broke out in 2023 with 189 carries for 1,0003 yards and 10 touchdowns and opened up the year with 64 yards and two scores. Buckley immediately should provide a boost to the Broncos offense and push Zahir Abdus-Salaam to backup duties.
