Wins in space out of the backfield. The three seasons at Syracuse span three head coaches: Dino Babers, Nunzio Campanile and Fran Brown. ACC Running Back Player of the Week in 2024 made it three straight seasons on the honors list. A game that shows it: 121 rushing yards and 37 receiving yards against Virginia Tech — Week 10, 2024.

Deployed as a receiver as much as a runner. Value is in space, not between the tackles.
