The Raymond Central Mustangs opened some eyes last season after posting an 8-3 record and will return a good core of players for this upcoming season. One intriguing prospect who is set to return is junior FB/ATH Tysen Taylor Tysen Taylor 6'2" | 215 lbs | ATH/RB Raymond Central | 2026 State NE . Tysen played as more of a fullback/backup last season, but still managed to post 353 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown, both of which should rise as he steps into a bigger role this fall. As I mentioned, Tysen played a mixed RB/FB role, showing he is just as effective taking the handoff himself or being a lead blocker for his backfield mate. Regardless, Tysen is a bulldozer when he gets going with his big 6’2″, 220-pound frame, usually requiring multiple defenders to bring him down. Taylor runs with a mean streak, delivering powerful stiff arms and driving knees as he fights to tack on additional yardage after contact. He’s a physical blocker who plays through the whistle and constantly looks to finish his blocks in the dirt. Tysen also possesses high upside on the defensive side of the ball, where he recorded a team-high 80 tackles and three TFLs, playing linebacker. As a linebacker, Taylor does a great job crashing downhill with a quick trigger when he keys the run and the strength to fight off blockers at the line of scrimmage. He is also a great tackler once he gets to the ball carrier.
