Kansas State's Avery Johnson: Dominates with his legs

Rotowire• ·

Johnson was 21-for-28 passing for 227 yards during Saturday's 31-20 win versus Tulane. He also had 12 rushes for 152 yards with two touchdowns.

Analysis:

Johnson delivered a monster fantasy performance against Tulane. His career-high rushing output powered Kansas State and reminded fantasy managers just how dangerous he is as a dual-threat quarterback. Johnson has become the centerpiece of a Kansas State offense that can beat defenses in multiple ways, and his rushing production gives him an elite fantasy floor before accounting for any passing stats. Looking ahead, Johnson is shaping up as one of the top fantasy quarterbacks in the Big 12. If conference opponents can't contain him as a runner, more explosive outings like this one are likely on the way.
