A running back for Ridge, CJ is a long stride runner that cuts through the middle and uses his length to outrun the defense. For a taller runner, CJ is surprisingly agile and does an excellent job making guys miss immediately after he's handed the ball.

[player_tooltip player_id='1105232' first='Nicholas' last='Danieli'] is an up and coming tackle that is looking to solidify himself in the starting lineup in 2024.
