2024 Fantasy Outlook
Following Sean Tyler's departure via the transfer portal to Minnesota after the 2022 season, there was uncertainty about who would claim the starting role in the Broncos' backfield. Those questions were answered emphatically in Week 1, with Buckley toting the rock 30 times for 194 yards and a touchdown. Despite missing a game, Buckley broke through the 1,000-yard barrier in the final game of the season, totaling 189 carries for 1,003 yards and 10 touchdowns. His production down the stretch, notching 75 carries for 36 yards and five touchdowns in the final four games, bodes well for another big season in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Scores in otherwise quiet game
Buckley notched eight carries for 26 yards and one touchdown and caught all three targets for 14 yards during Saturday's 30-23 defeat against South Alabama.
ANALYSIS
Buckley was bottled up on the ground against the Jaguars. His eight carries were the fewest he'd taken since Week 7, as the Broncos got away from their ground game and favored Buckley's backfield mate Jaden Nixon. Buckley has two more seasons of eligibility, and should remain Western Michigan's lead back if he sticks around for anther year in Kalamazoo.
