RJ Maryland

Tight EndTE
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Before he suffered a season-ending knee injury in October last year, Maryland was in the midst of an excellent season as the Mustangs' top tight end. He reeled in 24 balls for 359 yards and four scores across seven games and also demonstrated a knack for the occasional big play. Notably, he'd also clearly emerged as a top option for new starting quarterback Kevin Jennings. Maryland's status is still worth monitoring leading up to Week 1, but the upside is certainly there for the star tight end. What's more, the Mustangs' passing offense should only improve in the second year with Jennings under center. And given that SMU loses three of its top four receivers from last fall, there's no shortage of opportunities for Maryland to be a productive pass-catcher week in and week out. Read Past Outlooks

Maryland (knee) logged action in the Week 1 matchup against Texas A&M-Commerce on Saturday, according to Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.
ANALYSIS
Maryland recorded two quick catches in the game against Texas A&M-Commerce, and those were his first two catches since his ACL injury in October last year. He's expected to be a regular presence in the passing game as long as he stays healthy this season.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Over the last two seasons in Rhett Lashlee's system, Maryland has amassed a combined 62 grabs for 814 yards and 13 touchdowns, including 34 catches for 518 yards and seven touchdowns last year. Heading into his second season with Preston Stone at the helm, there will be no lack of familiarity in the QB-TE connection in 2024, presumably benefitting the pair. Maryland and company will face a tougher schedule with the move to the ACC, but blowouts, which occurred numerous times last season, will be few and far between, meaning the Mustangs' first-team offense should remain on the field for all four quarters more often. Most of the pass-catching options return from last season, so there are certainly the tools in place for SMU's offense to flourish again in 2024, and Maryland should remain the team's top red-zone threat.
