2025 Fantasy Outlook
Salter joins Coach Prime at Colorado from Liberty, where he threw 1,886 yards and 15 touchdowns while rushing for 587 yards and seven more scores. This was a decrease in production from his spectacular 2023 season when he totaled 44 touchdowns on his way to Conference USA Offensive Player of the Year. He'll look to get back to that kind of dual-threat production; however, he'll have to first win the starting job over five-star phenom and freshman Julian Lewis. Coach Prime brought both quarterbacks to Big 12 Media Days, which could signal that it's a true competition and both talented signal-callers may see the field in 2025. Either way, Colorado is stacked with talent, including Drelon Miller, Omarion Miller, and transfers Hykeem Williams and Joseph Williams. If the experienced Salter does win the starting job, he should put up sizable numbers in Colorado's uptempo offense, and he's worthy of a draft slot in most fantasy leagues, given that upside.

Struggles massively versus Utah
Salter was 9-for-22 passing for 37 yards and one interception during Saturday's 53-7 loss against Utah. He also had 14 rushes for negative four yards.
ANALYSIS
Salter had by far his worst game of the season Saturday. He completed just 40 percent of his passes for a measly 37 yards, threw an interception and lost four yards on 15 rushing attempts. The Salter-led offense finished with negative yardage in the first half, so it was not surprising that Salter was benched for Ryan Staub in the fourth quarter. Salter will likely be given another chance Saturday versus Arizona and put this performance behind him.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Salter wasn't locked in as the starter heading into fall camp in 2023, but how the tides have turned since then. He ran with the starting gig, both figuratively and literally, racking up 1,089 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns under the tutelage of Jamey Chadwell, who had similar success with Grayson McCall while at Coastal Carolina. Salter added 2,876 passing yards and a 32:6 TD:INT ratio, trailing only Jayden Daniels and Bo Nix in fantasy production. He enters 2024 as arguably the top fantasy quarterback alongside Nix's replacement at Oregon in Dillon Gabriel. Salter does lose CJ Daniels from his receiving corps, which shouldn't be understated, but Treon Sibley returns and the Flames add a bevy of transfer wideouts to fill the gaps in the passing attack. LIberty's schedule remains among the easiest in the college football ranks in 2024, so there's little reason Salter can't replicate his 2023 output this season.
