Van Kalsbeek ran for 285 yards (7.3 YPC) and 4 TDs, finishing with the 3rd highest YPC average among his teammates who had at least 20+ carries in 2025. A powerful runner who boasts more size and physicality in comparison to his fellow running mates, Van Kalsbeek uses that to his advantage as he was able to bull his way through defenders, and he was a nightmare to tackle in the open-field as he was able to shake off defenders coming from the side with ease. Van Kalsbeek will look to receive more carries in the backfield in 2026, and while not as the primary RB, Van Kalsbeek should not be ignored as a dangerous force to go against when he’s in the backfield.
