2024 Fantasy Outlook
Salter wasn't locked in as the starter heading into fall camp in 2023, but how the tides have turned since then. He ran with the starting gig, both figuratively and literally, racking up 1,089 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns under the tutelage of Jamey Chadwell, who had similar success with Grayson McCall while at Coastal Carolina. Salter added 2,876 passing yards and a 32:6 TD:INT ratio, trailing only Jayden Daniels and Bo Nix in fantasy production. He enters 2024 as arguably the top fantasy quarterback alongside Nix's replacement at Oregon in Dillon Gabriel. Salter does lose CJ Daniels from his receiving corps, which shouldn't be understated, but Treon Sibley returns and the Flames add a bevy of transfer wideouts to fill the gaps in the passing attack. LIberty's schedule remains among the easiest in the college football ranks in 2024, so there's little reason Salter can't replicate his 2023 output this season. Read Past Outlooks
Week 5 matchup canceled
Salter and the Flames' contest against Appalachian State on Saturday has been called off due to the effects of Hurricane Helene.
ANALYSIS
Salter and the rest of Liberty's program will get an extended bye week after their matchup with App State was called off due to weather conditions surrounding Hurricane Helene. The 6-foot-1 junior, who has thrown for 949 yards (66-of-103), seven touchdowns and one interception across four outings this season, adding on 131 yards on the ground, will lead the Flames into battle against FIU on Oct. 8, giving the team effectively three weeks off from football. Liberty's matchup against Appalachian State will not be rescheduled.
