2022 Fantasy Outlook
Nacua was long considered to be the future of the Washington passing game but after two tough seasons there, he transferred to his hometown team and finally delivered on his promise with a breakout 2021. He caught 43 of 67 targets for 805 yards and six touchdowns in his first season in Provo despite competing for targets with more established players. Gunner Romney’s return caps some of Nacua’s fantasy upside, but it’s still possible that he pushes closer to 80-90 targets while carrying his elite efficiency. Having Jaren Hall at quarterback certainly won’t hurt, either.
