02Scheme fit
Ideal system
The West Coast timing and ball control offense that emphasizes a strong ground game and backs who can contribute in the passing attack.
Comp. back (short yardage)3rd Down BackPunt Return
Best role
Year 1 contributor in short-yardage and as a reliable pass-catching option, with the ceiling to be a rotational back in a committee approach.
Wrong fit
A spread RPO offense that demands elite breakaway speed and dynamic, homerun-hitting ability from its running backs.
His high effort, contact balance, and receiving skills make him a valuable asset in a scheme that prioritizes a versatile backfield and ball security.
