Film Review Notes
Hyper-productive running back who led his high school team to a state title appearance in 2026. On the shorter side and looks to have a compact build. Shows good vision, reading his blocks and picking through the line of scrimmage to the second level. Flashes very good contact balance, using his leg drive and lower body strength to break arm tackles. Difficult for defenders to get on the ground with his lower center of gravity. Capable of gathering and getting back up to top speed after contact. Shows solid initial burst and broke off a high number of 40+ yard runs in 2026. Has quality vision in the open field and sees cutback lanes. Listed at 5'9, 195, but looks smaller than that on film. Personal best of 11.15 seconds in the 100 meters validates top end speed.
