Closest statistical matches, adjusted for opponent strength.
Stedman Mayberry
Wins in space out of the backfield. Played for two head coaches in three seasons at Texas State. On tape: 87 rushing yards and 29 receiving yards against UL Monroe, Week 7, 2016.
Play style
Deployed as a receiver as much as a runner. Value is in space, not between the tackles.
Boom vs consistent · carry-yardage shape
Steady, not spectacular
Just 15.4% of his season rushing yards came on his 5 best carries — remarkably even — and he's stuffed on 17.8% of his carries. 8 carries for 18 yds vs Arkansas State; 11 for 87 vs UL Monroe.
Counted from the play-by-play, so a carry or two can differ from the box score.
