Buffalo routs Wagner 69-7 in season opener

Kyle Vantrease threw a 63-yard touchdown pass to Jovany Ruiz within the first minute of the game, Buffalo coach Maurice Linguist collected his first win at the helm, and the Bulls...

SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • Associated Press

Tajay Ahmed - Scores touchdown vs. Wagner Ahmed had five carries for 51 yards and a touchdown against Wagner on Thursday night.

Impact Ahmed had one career carry entering the game, and a blowout win brought some action for him. He's likely to be buried on the running back depth chart for the Bulls, barring an epic run of injuries.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Marlyn Johnson - Catches TD vs. Wagner Johnson had a 26-yard touchdown against Wagner on Thursday night.

Impact This was Johnson's first career touchdown. He's in line for more playing time this year, but it's unclear if that will translate to notable numbers.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Quian Williams - Nears 100 yards vs. Wagner Williams had a team-high five catches for 96 yards against Wagner on Thursday night.

Impact Williams came to Buffalo from Eastern Michigan, and he looks like the Bulls' No. 1 wide receiver. Next week against Nebraska will be tougher, but Williams is absolutely on the fantasy radar.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jovany Ruiz - Catches long TD vs. Wagner Ruiz had three catches for 76 yards, including a 63-yard touchdown in the opening minute, Thursday night against Wagner.

Impact Ruiz carried some momentum from late last season into the 2021 season opener. He won't get a ton of target volume in the Bulls' offense, but a big play here and there feels possible.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Kevin Marks - Scores twice in season opener Marks had 13 carries for 72 yards and two touchdowns, with one catch for nine yards, against Wagner Thursday night.

Impact Marks didn't see as much work as he will most weeks, as the Bulls won 69-7, but two scores offset that to some degree. Look for him to push toward 20 carries next week against Nebraska.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Ron Cook - Tops 90 yards vs. Wagner Cook had 14 carries for a team-high 94 yards and a touchdown, along with one catch for two yards, Thursday night against Wagner.

Impact The Bulls deployed a real backfield committee in a blowout win, and Cook actually led the way. A move to what will be normal, with Kevin Marks as the No. 1 guy, is surely coming against Nebraska next week.
