Coley suffered an injury in the first half of the game I scouted on Oct. 10, 2025. Before he exited, he showed a broad base of skills that make him an intriguing prospect. As a running back, Coley brings power to position. His strength makes him a tough guy to tackle initially and then again once he builds up some steam. Coley also stresses defenses as a receiver with sharp route running and reliable hands. A willing and able blocker, Coley is effective even when the ball isn’t in his hands. He also returns kicks for the Cardinals, which speaks to his speed and ability make opponents miss.

flashed potential as a leading RB for the Cardinals’ run-game. Coley ran for 362 yards and 5 touchdowns last season, averaging 4.2 yards per carry, adding 12 catches for 200 yards and a touchdown. A solid runner uphill who doesn’t shy away from contact while also being versatile as a dual-threat option for the offense, Coley straightforward pound-the-rock style compliments well for Klein’s more explosive ability. Coley should continue to see his reps increase over the next 2 seasons.
Coley racked up 362 yards and five touchdowns as a complementary piece in a potent Cardinal rushing attack. He hauled in 12 catches for 200 yards and a score, showing he’s dangerous with the ball in his hands. On his Hudl page, Coley has clips and highlights from individual games. During that film, we witness a bigger back that can run over defenders but also one with elusiveness and wiggle. He looks very comfortable running routes as well. You’ll want to have your head on a swivel as an opponent because if not Coley will lay you out.
