Floor 4.0 · Ceiling 4.8

#2139 overall · #188 RB of 15096

Scouting Verdict

Athlon 2026 third-team All-Sun Belt running back and the projected lead back after a knee injury cost him the last six games of 2025 and required November surgery. With 1,032-yard rusher OJ Arnold gone, the backfield is his.

Ceiling · 4.8

Projected 2026 starter (RB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.1) · Sun Belt draft-temper · RB devalued (ceiling capped).

Floor · 4.0

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.7.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.
