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.

Totals 220 yards against Colorado
Giddens accrued 25 carries for 182 yards and reeled in 2 of 3 targets for 38 yards during Saturday's 31-28 victory against Colorado.
ANALYSIS
Giddens has been an absolute beast over his last two games with a combined 40 carries for 369 yards to go along with three catches for 60 yards. He became the first player to rush over 100 yards on Colorado this season. He's Kansas State's best offensive weapon and he should get plenty of opportunities at West Virginia next week.
