Ketron Jackson Jr. - Two receptions for 69 yards, one TD Jackson (undisclosed) logged two receptions for 69 yards and one touchdown during Baylor's 45-3 win Saturday against Tarleton State.
Impact Dequan Finn completing a 39-yard lob to Jackson helped Baylor enter Tarleton State's red zone for the first time Saturday. Once the Bears were comfortably winning, Sawyer Robertson was their quarterback and scored one touchdown himself. He completed a 30-yard lob to Jackson for both their first TDs of 2024. The wideout's latest log indicates his best quality, which can significantly benefit fantasy managers in turn. Jackson is a deep threat who has averaged more than 17 yards per reception every year since 2021.

Dequan Finn - Impressive in debut Finn completed 14 of 22 passes for 192 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions during Saturday's 45-3 win versus Tarleton State. He also had six rushes for 19 yards with one to...
Impact Finn won the job in camp after transferring from Toledo, where he won MAC Most Valuable Player honors in 2023. He showed off his mobility early with a 39-yard touchdown run during Baylor's first drive. Although he threw two picks, it was a mostly efficient night for Finn, who cemented his hold on the starting gig in the blowout.

Ketron Jackson Jr. - Listed on depth chart Jackson (undisclosed) has been included in the depth chart for Saturday's game against Tarleton State.
Impact Jackson seems to be improving from a physical perspective after missing an scrimmage in mid-August, and the fact that he was added to the depth chart suggests he's trending in the right direction toward being available. The senior wide receiver totaled 28 receptions for 489 yards and one touchdown during the 2023 season.
AUGUST 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Josh Cameron - Starting in Week 1 Cameron is listed as a starter on Baylor's first depth chart of the season.
Impact Cameron is coming off a modest season, reeling in 21 catches for 224 yards last fall. Still, he was targeted 42 times, and 49 times the year before that. The Bears' offense clearly likes to get him involved. Now, listed as a starting wide receiver, he should get the chance to do just that in his redshirt junior season.

Sawyer Robertson - Not expected to be QB1 Robertson is not expected to be named Baylor's starting quarterback, Matt Zenitz of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact Dequan Finn is expected to be named Baylor's starting quarterback. It should not be such a surprising decision, considering Finn's statistical output during his enrollment at Toledo. But now, there is a chance Robertson does not earn the same opportunities he received during 2023, especially if Finn plays well and remains healthy across 2024.

Dequan Finn - Expected to be named starting QB Finn is expected to be named as Baylor's starting quarterback, Matt Zenitz of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact Since enrolling at Baylor, Finn has been competing against Sawyer Robertson to be the team's starting quarterback. The ex-Toledo transfer being named QB1 should not be so surprising, considering what he has done before his college change. While enrolled at Toledo, Finn logged at least 2,500 scrimmage yards and 25 touchdowns each year from 2021 to 2023. Now, the question is whether or not he can continue his statistical success while part of a team expected to play against better competition more often.
