is another running back to keep an eye on in this Perkins-Tryon offense this season. It was interesting to watch how the Demons moved offensively and the balancing act they had at running back. They had three guys that all got legitimate carries. Now, they have McLemore and Atkinson leading the way. Atkinson’s carries should go up this season and if that happens, look for the yards and touchdowns to go up as well. Atkinson is no stranger to more production in the run game. He had a terrific sophomore campaign in 2023.

because we think he could be an absolute breakout star for the Demons this season. Atkinson would absolutely shine in 2023, despite being on a running back depth chart that was loaded with talent. He would finish the year with nearly 700 yards and ten touchdowns on the ground. Needless to say, he was explosive when the ball was in his hands and in 2024, we think his production might explode as well. He’s going to get more carries and with those carries should come more yards and trips to the end zone. It wouldn’t surprise us if he emerges as one of the top running backs in 3A football.
