His ability to run between the tackles using his explosive acceleration and shifty jump cuts makes him a dangerous ball carrier who becomes a defense's nightmare once in space. His overall speed makes him a legitimate candidate for a program in need of a return man on special teams. Griffin's skills and work ethic make him a standout running back with a high ceiling. u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["698231"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003ePrice is a new radar pop-up with significant upside as a college prospect. His size makes him an instant standout, but his powerful running style turns him into a spotlight-stealer whenever he is on the field. He has impressive strength and the willingness to keep his legs moving upon contact, making it difficult for defenders to bring him down.

He is patient enough to let his blocks set up before exploding through the slightest gap in the defense and gaining a large chunk of yardage using his acceleration and speed. He uses his excellent power and strength to run through tackles and gain yards after contact. His ability to see the field clearly and utilize his cutback lanes to exploit poor pursuit techniques by the defense is noteworthy.

He is a raw player with impressive speed and athleticism, making him dangerous in the open field. His athletic versatility makes him a prime candidate for a special teams player as a returner, gunner, or cornerback on punt return.
