Former Auburn player that led Troy State in rushing the past two seasons. Totaled 160/801/5.0/8 on the ground last season also recording 24/194/8.1/4 as a receiver and 17/26.1/1 returning kicks. Junior numbers were 135/804/5.9/6 on the ground, with 12/224/18.7/2 as a receiver and 7/34.1/1 returning kicks. Started six games as a sophomore at Auburn when he gained 406

Versatile offensive prospect that is elusive when the ball is in his hands. Quick through the hole, has a burst of speed and runs with forward lean. Sees the field, follows blocks displaying good footwork and the ability to set up defenders and make them miss. Fast enough to get outside around the corner but also squirms through the small openings when running between tackle. Quick out of the backfield into his pass routes as a receiver, adjusts to the throw and looks to pick up positive yardage running after the catch. Adequate hands as a pass catcher but not a natural receiver and does too much body catching or cradling of the pass instead of snatching it cleanly out of the air. Running lacks any strength and he gives minimal effort when asked to block. Did a solid but not spectacular job in the Blue-Gray Game. Abilities to return kicks and ability to be a specialist on third down situations will make him attractive to teams. Late Sixth Round.
