Expert Analysis
Jordan Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
Ellis leads the pack of returning NCS rushers after racking up 1,495 yards and 25 touchdowns on 176 carries as a junior despite missing 6 games. 5’10” 200 lbs. he’s got powerful frame with a strong lower half. Low center of gravity gives him great balance and ability to absorb contact while maintaining leg drive. He shows natural ball carrier instincts and field vision to quickly identify lanes and anticipate how blocks will develop. Runs with patience and temp to allow creases to open before making decisive cuts. Difficult to wrap up in one on one situations, he’s a physical runner that can break tackles and pick up yards after contact. Currently holds three D1 offers from Grambling State, Sac State, and Northern Arizona.
