Hayward measures in at 5’11 165-pounds playing RB/S/K. He’s a three-sport athlete, playing track as well as basketball. He had 56 carries for 430 yards with 6 touchdowns, 6 receptions for 141 yards with 1 touchdown, 46 total tackles (28 solo, 18 assisted), 2 TFL, 2 INT, 2 PD, 1 FR, 67 kickoffs for 3344 yards, 12 touchbacks, 40/45 on PAT, 6/6 on FGs, longest was 47 yards. Other than filling the stat sheet, he has very good athletic ability due to his very good acceleration, speed, jumping, good balance, and change of direction. As a running back, he thrives with gaining extra yards after contact. Uses his very good strength to power through. As a safety, he has dynamic coverage skills and impacts the running game. As a kicker, he demonstrates very good kick power and accuracy with clean kicking motion. Look for him to continue dominating next season.
