It was unfortunate that 2025 West Branch (OH) running back Boston Mulinix had to leave the camp portion of the event early on because he certainly looked the part out there during testing and some individual drills. Mulinix is a compact and strongly built 5’7 195 who has clearly spent ample time in the weight room and likely was pound for pound one of the strongest athletes in attendance. Mulinix has the athleticism to pair with it as he ripped off a 4.6  40, 4.25 pro shuttle, and a 3-yard leap in the broad jump. From watching his film, all of those raw athletic traits showed up in his junior highlight tape where he produced an 1,100 yards rushing and 21 touchdowns season in 2023. Mulinix is explosive through the hole and can accelerate to top speed by the time he’s through it. He has good footwork and a change of direction behind and beyond the line of scrimmage and can make defenders miss and find an open hole. Even as a shorter running back, Mulinix’s raw strength is a huge benefit to him when running through arm tackles and making the first defender miss.

The Cardinals offered him a scholarship even without getting to see him the entire camp and it’s no surprise why they’re so high on him.
