Had 267 yards on 75 carries for the regular season, raising his average per carry to 3.6 yards. ... Had a team-high four special teams tackles against the Seahawks in the Divisional playoff. ... Selected in second round of NFL draft by Green Bay Packers (63rd overall) on April 28.
College
All-Conference selection last season after starting nine games and
totaling 188/989/8 rushing with 33/313/2 receiving.
Pos:
Talented ball-handler who produces in a variety of ways. Displays
solid running vision, follows blocks and finds the cutback lanes.
Displays a burst of speed, possesses the ability to make defenders
miss and runs with an aggressive style. Does not go down without a
fight. Terrific receiver out of the backfield.
Neg:
Must improve his ball security. Not a big back who picks up yardage
after initial contact. |
