Jahray Hayes
Does a little of everything without one standout trait. This is his second year in the same backfield at Central Michigan. One game to point at: 105 rushing yards and 1 rushing TD against Northern Illinois — Week 7, 2016.
Play style
Plays within the scheme — consistent production without a dominant dimension.
Boom vs consistent · carry-yardage shape
Steady, not spectacular
Just 14.6% of his season rushing yards came on his 5 best carries — remarkably even — and he's stuffed on 19.0% of his carries. 3 carries for 4 yds vs Ball State; 21 for 93 vs Northern Illinois.
Counted from the play-by-play, so a carry or two can differ from the box score.
