RJ Evans RJ Evans 5'11" | 175 lbs | RB Thompson | 2026 State AL is a talented RB out of Thompson who put up one of his best seasons yet last fall, finding ways to make huge plays out of the backfield all year long.
Evans is a versatile weapon for Thompson’s offense- he‘s a dynamic back who plays with a ton of speed, twitch, and toughness that can hurt defenses on the ground and through the air. Evans has great vision he uses to quickly find rushing lanes behind the line of scrimmage and has the speed and acceleration to take off into the open field for huge gains. He’s elusive with the ball in his hands and can change his direction to weave around defenders.
On top of that, Evans is really productive on passing downs- he has great hands, can run routes out of the backfield, and can find extra yards after the catch.
Evans was a huge piece of Thompson’s offense last fall- ending his junior year with 128 carries for 727 yards and 7 TDs on the ground, and 24 receptions for 281 yards and one TD through the air.
Evans picked up an offer from North Alabama earlier this offseason and should have more heading his way soon.
