2024 Rush/Rec Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
With six 100-yard rushing performances during the 2023 season, Giddens established himself over Florida State transfer Treshaun Ward as the top back for the Wildcats. Ward entered the portal again and transferred to Boston College, leaving Giddens atop the depth chart, with Colorado transfer Dylan Edwards coming in as the backup. The steady junior back was a pleasant surprise last year with 1,226 yards and 10 touchdowns on 223 carries, including 207 yards and four touchdowns against UCF in Week 4. He was also valuable in the passing game, totaling 29 catches for 323 yards and three more scores. Giddens will be important in helping new quarterback Avery Johnson grow accustomed to his new starting role, and he should be heavily leaned on as both a rusher and receiver again in 2024, making him one of the more valuable backs in fantasy.

Logs sixth 100-yard rushing game
Giddens accrued 14 rushes for 133 yards and hauled in 1 of 2 targets for six yards during Saturday's 24-14 defeat versus Arizona State.
ANALYSIS
Giddens logged his sixth 100-yard rushing game of the season. While doing so, he also eclipsed 1,000 yards rushing for the year and has done so in back-to-back seasons. The versatile back really can do it all as he also has at least one catch in six straight games. His fantasy output could have been even better, but it was QB Avery Johnson and teammate Joe Jackson who recorded the two rushing scores versus the Sun Devils. Giddens remains a must start option against Cincinnati next week.
