DeAndre Washington
Beats you as a runner and a receiver. This is his second year in the same backfield at Texas Tech. One game to point at: 248 rushing yards and 36 receiving yards against Kansas State — Week 11, 2015.
Play style
Threatens defenses in every dimension — rushing, receiving, third-down.
Boom vs consistent · carry-yardage shape
Steady, not spectacular
Just 17.2% of his season rushing yards came on his 5 best carries — remarkably even — and he's stuffed on 11.2% of his carries. 10 carries for 37 yds vs LSU; 27 for 248 vs Kansas State.
Counted from the play-by-play, so a carry or two can differ from the box score.
Closer · Q4-with-lead carry share
Not actually a closer
53.3% of carries overall (228/428) → 39.4% of Q4-with-lead carries (28/71) — 75.0% of those in competitive (≤16-pt) games.
Counted from the play-by-play, so a carry or two can differ from the box score.
