2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Bruins poached the MAC conference in the transfer portal, adding Steele from Ball State and quarterback Collin Schlee from Kent State. Coach Chip Kelly needed someone to fill Zach Charbonnet's shoes, and for now, it appears Steele is their guy. Steele was a dependable every-down back during his tenure in Muncie and enjoyed a stellar 2022 campaign, compiling 1,556 yards and 16 touchdowns. Even though he'll be facing stiffer competition, he should excel in the Chip Kelly-led offense, especially if he can claim the Zach Charbonnet role from last season.
