Depending how injuries play out this year, it could be anyone's year.
 



AJ Turner will have a few more rushing yards than Darius, because Turner will break some long ones. But Darius will catch 50 passes as well, and will be the leader by far in All Purpose Yards.

Unless we start the season like last year where the running game wasn't very productive, I don't expect to see us throw as often as last season. Last season, the team averaged 31.7 passing attempts per game and 31.1 rushing attempts per game. The previous highs for passing attempts per game (in the Fleck era) were in the 2018 and 2020 seasons with a little over 26 per game. They'll keep throwing to Darius (assuming he remains healthy) but I don't expect him to get as many targets per game next season.

Regardless of who is on top, I look forward to seeing these guys produce as a team.
