Bio
My name is Ellis Johnson and I am a Canadian fantasy football writer. I have been writing published fantasy articles for six years. I have finished as the #1 ranker twice in the FantasyPros accuracy contest: Week 2 (2024) and Week 3 (2025). I also held the top QB spot over the first 7 weeks of the 2024 season. I have a Kinesiology degree from the University of British Columbia and completed my Master's of Science at the University of Calgary. My Master's examined the intersection of inclusion and masculinity in sports. I strive to apply my perspective and understanding of the sociocultural aspects of sports in my fantasy analysis, delivering statistically detailed player perspectives. #WhoDeyNation Twitter: @YoitsEllis_FF
