2024 Fantasy Outlook
Howard's stats climaxed in his 2023 season at Kansas State, tallying 2,643 passing yards, 351 rushing yards, and 33 total touchdowns with 10 interceptions. The super senior will now make his way to the Buckeyes, who enabled Kyle McCord to surpass 3,000 passing yards and log a 24:6 TD:INT ratio in his final year with the team. Though Howard will not have star wideout Marvin Harrison as an asset, he does join Ohio State with more experience as a starter and overall experience in spreading the love. Howard should be primed for another big season in his collegiate career as he joins wide receiver Emeka Egbuka and potential breakout freshman Jeremiah Smith, plus a pair of star running backs in TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins who can both contribute as receivers out of the backfield. Howard has all the skills necessary and as long as he makes it over the hump of acquainting with his new team, his output should only increase from his time as a Wildcat. Read Past Outlooks
Makes critical mistakes in loss
Howard completed 19 of 33 passes for 175 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 13-10 defeat versus Michigan.
ANALYSIS
Howard struggled more than he had all season in this disastrous loss for the Buckeyes. The fifth-year quarterback finished with a season-low 57.6 completion percentage and threw multiple interceptions for the first time all season. Ohio State's offense struggled to move the ball all game, and Howard's two interceptions came at some of the worst times possible, including one deep in his own territory that led to a Michigan touchdown in the first half followed by another turnover in the red zone during the second half. The loss eliminates the Buckeyes from next week's Big Ten championship game, though they'll likely still find their way into the 12-team College Football Playoff field as an at-large bid that would have them compete in the first round of the postseason tournament. Either way, Howard finishes his first regular season at Ohio State with a 72.3 completion percentage for 2,860 passing yards and 27 touchdowns to eight interceptions, and he added seven more touchdowns on the ground.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Wildcats averaged 38.8 points per game in Howard’s five starts last year which was a big reason they were able to capture the Big 12 title game. Kansas State returns eight offensive starters for a Chris Klieman squad which found their groove last year. While they did lose running back Deuce Vaughn to the NFL, they were able to add some depth with Florida State transfer Treshaun Ward to play alongside DJ Giddens in the backfield. Howard also has familiar targets in wide receiver Phillip Brooks and tight end Ben Sinnot. It’s a big positive that the coaching staff has full confidence in Howard as he goes in to his fourth year with the team. With one of the best offensive lines in the conference (all five starters returning), Kansas State should contend for a conference title once again.
