Productive through three weeks Fifita has completed 46 of his 78 passes for 712 yards and six touchdowns, adding 28 rushing attempts for 37 yards and three scores through three games this season.

Impact Fifita has put together a productive start to his third straight season as the Wildcats' starting quarterback, averaging three total touchdowns per game so far this season. His passing production took a dip in his first test of the season versus Kansas State, however that was also by far his best rushing outing of the season. He only had one rushing touchdown across his first two seasons as a starter, so this new aspect of his game raises his floor for fantasy purposes.

He faces another tough defense Saturday at Iowa State.
