Quarterback Shedeur Sanders and Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter weren’t the only Colorado football players who put up big numbers in the 2024 season. Most notably, wide receiver LaJohntay Wester, safety Cam’Ron Silmon-Craig and defensive end BJ Green II stepped up, and their final indivudal statistics reflect that.
Several other Buffs also enjoyed strong years numbers-wise. Defensive ends Keaten Wade and Arden Walker combined for 8.5 sacks, true freshman running back Micah Welch had four rushing touchdowns, and linebacker Nikhai Hill-Green finished with over 80 tackles, just to name a few.
According to Colorado’s official team statistics, below are the Buffs’ final individual stat leaders from the 2024 season:
