The first clip in hios 2022 season film shows his 2nd gear ability to pull away from defenders in open field. Then you fill in his ability to see running lanes open and plant his foot to change direction into the running lane is another trait he brings in his skill set. He has fast twitch quickness that is visible when carrying the ball.

Can be a running back or slot back who can run the outside perimeter and also be a threat in the passing game.  He fights hard through first contact and doesn't go down easy.   I love how he  breaks tackles and still gives effort to get additional yardage. He runs the 100 meter in 11.1 seconds indicating his speed is at a higher level. He is willing and able to block out of the backfield. Has good instincts when running the ball. He can see and get to running lanes outside when running lanes inside are clogged.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d04101d5d33"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Hamden_FB/status/1570579329947516931?s=20u0026amp;t=7IWme9GZGOHTnLAkxK8wrQ","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Hamden_FB/status/1570579329947516931?s=20&amp;t=7IWme9GZGOHTnLAkxK8wrQ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15226937/638bc3c8dfd8d004c06c9158' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d04101d5d68"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["614520"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='614520' first='Bryce' last='Davis'] is 6'0u0022 180lbs positioned as a running back.

He made a big splash this season totalling 1202 rushing yards, 1614 all purpose yards and 17 rushing td's that lead him to a total of 18 total touchdowns in the season.  He has patience when he runs the perimeter allowing his blockers to get in front and open the running lanes. He is a tough runner,  who runs between the tackles, beats defenders w/ speed u0026amp; quickness and his ability to catch out of the backfield.   He takes care of the football and had u00220u0022 fumbles during the season.
