Five 2028 Georgia Running Backs Poised For A Big Year

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> Just like the Quarterbacks in Georgia, the Running Back assembly line coming out of the Peach State is unreal. There are too many to name at each level. This is a testament of a large talent pool being coached up at an early age. Here's a look at five different style RBs that should be among the most talked about prospects in the state after the 2023 season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["674805"],"_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":"Keshon continues to build his resume on the field highlighted by an invite to the UA Next Game in 2024.

If you're  5'10 and 190 pounds of thick muscle in 8th grade, the nickname u0022Mac Trucku0022 is an easy sell. With that being said, I am buying all of it. Being blessed with a bigger frame has its benefits by playing a physical sport. You would be foolish to assume that Jacez is only good for in between the tackle grunt work. He has enough speed to get the edge and make tacklers miss. The last name Walton is not foreign to recruiters right now due to Jacez's older brother, [player_tooltip player_id='422543' first='Jonaz' last='Walton'], a 2026 with double digit offers. Just wait until the duo hits the field together on the same team under the lights on Friday nights in a few short years.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["952354"],"_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":"u003cp class=u0022p1u0022u003eThis explosive running back will make you hold your breath every time he gets the ball in his hands.

[player_tooltip player_id='952354' first='Tripp' last='Chatmon'] knows he is 5'5 and 145 pounds soaking wet so he plays to his strengths to be affective in the run and passing game.

This kid is special and starting to push the envelope on NOT being considered a small back at 5'8 15o. I know successful high schoolers at this size that don't have the ability of Martin. His acceleration at the second level will catch defenders off guard, along with decisive cuts which makes it look too easy. Martin is also a threat out of the backfield. Leaving a linebacker on him in the passing game with a lot of real estate will leave you on his highlight tape. Let's also take a step back and remember he moved from South Carolina to Georgia this past year, in the hopes of playing against many of the other talented prospects the Peach State has.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["952717"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Mr. Williams stands at 5'8 and tips the scale at a misleading 145 pounds. This running back is built like one and has shown the ability to run around, and over tacklers if need be. He is a natural. Williams is not your typical back that wants to find the sideline. He knows how to get in and get back out of the hole to ruin pursuit angles. I really like his stride length and how he does not stop his feet on contact. Falling forward and protecting the football will keep you on the field and Mr. Williams is a must have in your backfield.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dea2f97e1ef"} /-->
