Three-down running back prospect who wins with burst, vision, and a physical downhill style. Verified at 5-foot-9, 177 pounds in March 2026, and it's very possible he's closer to 180-plus pounds now, with camp being over five months ago. Athletic, developed build, with his upper body filled out and limited room left, while the lower half can still add some mass. He's close to his physical ceiling but should sit comfortably in the 200–pound range at the next level without sacrificing athletic ability. Ran an impressive laser-verified 4.71 40-yard dash to go with a 4.52 shuttle, and posted solid explosive…

Top Attributes

- Acceleration and ability to hit top-end speed quickly - Vision and instincts as a runner - Physicality and willingness to take on and initiate contact

Areas to Develop

- Needs to improve his elusiveness and wiggle in the open field - Needs to develop his footwork and contact balance - Focus on adding mass without sacrificing top-end speed and burst

Film Review Notes

Running back prospect with verified size at 5-foot-9, 177 pounds in March 2026. Very possible he could be sitting closer to 180+ pounds at this point since camp was over 5 months ago. Athletic, developed build. Has a more developed upper body with limited room for growth. Lower half can still gain some mass, but pretty close to his physical ceiling. Likely going to sit comfortably in the 200-pound range at the next level without sacrificing athletic ability. Ran an impressive laser-verified 4.71 40-yard dash as well as a decent 4.52 shuttle. Solid explosive testing numbers, jumping nearly 30 inches in the vertical and nearly 9 feet in the broad jump. Very strong and has burst and explosiveness; great acceleration and ability to reach his top gear quickly. Strong runner that runs behind his pads and isn't afraid of contact. Can see lanes quickly and accelerates through them effectively. Has good vision and understands how to follow his blocks and find daylight if the runway is blocked. Accelerates through contact and possesses strong leg drive; tough to bring down in close quarters or in space. Quality pass catcher out of the backfield and down the field. Natural ball tracker, comfortable catching the ball away from his frame. Has some apparent hip stiffness and balance issues. Occasionally stumbles over his feet and lacks ideal contact balance. Need to see improvement in his ability to absorb contact and stay upright as opposed to lowering his shoulder and falling forward on first contact. Needs to improve his lateral ability and elusiveness in order to make more defenders miss in space. Solid three-down back that is a capable pass catcher out of the backfield and has the vision to follow blocks and find daylight, but lacks the wiggle and contact balance to create and extend plays consistently.
