247 Sports Scouting Report

Enormously productive running back with excellent totals and per-carry rate. Good juice in the first 10-20 yards combines with quick-footedness in the hole. Capable of making first defender miss at the second level. Runs with purpose, keeps pads square, does not dance too much. Strong enough to fight through arm tackles and displays above average contact balance. Good natural pad level. No verified data in regards to measurables or speed markers. Encouraging pass-catching reps as a freshman, but limited pass-catching exposure in past two seasons. Projects to the P4 level as a valuable piece of a RB room who could develop into a higher-volume, every-down runner with multi-year impact player potential.
