has been the engine for Westwood this year, already over 1,000 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground, and it’s easy to see why when you watch him play. He runs low and compact with that old-school pad level that makes him such a nightmare to bring down. The first guy almost never gets him — he keeps his legs churning, fights through contact, and turns what should be second-and-long into manageable downs. There’s real toughness to his game, but it’s not just power; he’s got a natural feel for space and timing that helps him hit holes at the perfect moment. When he breaks into the open field, he’s got enough burst to make defenses pay for lazy angles. He’s one of those backs who plays with so much rhythm and confidence that it feels like he’s in control of every snap — just a natural playmaker.
