Tradarian Ball

Explosive offensive weapon with experience out of the backfield and aligned at receiver. Not a bruiser, but looks and plays larger than size on paper. Consistent big-play option with versatility and athleticism to produce home run plays via hand-off, screen game, downfield targets, and in the return game. Flashes quick, decisive cuts and sudden redirection. Creative second-level runner whose speed often maximizes open-field opportunities. Caught two dozen passes as a sophomore, establishing valuable receiving foundation. Not only caught balls from the backfield, but lined up wide and from the slot and showed encouraging route nuance and downfield tracking ability. Plays with easy speed enhanced by explosive initial acceleration. Can get on the horse and go when he finds space. Capable cut-stacker in the open field. Good contact balance but will need to continue to add mass/strength. Sometimes runs upright with too narrow a base. Could be more than just a player who wears the running back label; rather, a versatile weapon whose volume can derive from backfield touches and targets alike. Displays speed, agility, vision, and pass-catching dexterity to create a potential high-major gamebreaker at the next level.
