Braiden Brummett is a starting running back for Southport High School. Tough and physical runner who has good patience to follow blocks, but knows when it’s time to turn it up a notch. Runs through contact effectively. Not very elusive, but earns his stripes between the tackles and is very effective in short yardage. Has a thin frame but is tougher than his size would indicate.

Brummett is a shifty back with a good first step. He’s good laterally and can make guys miss in a tight space. He’s best on the outside runs where he can use his vision, stick his foot in the ground, and hit the lane when it opens up. He keeps his legs churning and doesn’t go down without a fight. He rotated in last year and averaged just over 7 yards per carry. 598 rushing yards and 3 TDs in year 3 have him set up for a good senior campaign.
