2024 Fantasy Outlook
Nussmeier has been waiting in the wings for three years and now finally gets his shot. He has big shoes to fill as the follow-up act to 2023 Heisman winner Jayden Daniels, but Nussmeier has shown flashes of serious potential before. While he won't be able to lean on Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas as Daniels did, the cupboard is hardly bare for Nussmeier. Nussmeier put himself on the map in relief of Daniels in the 2022 SEC Championship Game against Georgia when he threw for 294 yards and two scores. He capitalized on his start in last year's bowl game against Wisconsin by throwing for 395 yards and three touchdowns. Nussmeier has a cannon arm and elite talent around him, including on the offensive line, which will translate to gaudy production in 2024. Things could get even better for Nussmeier's numbers if the defense is as porous as 2023, but that would be difficult. Read Past Outlooks
