What a talent. It’s too bad he was only able to play in five games. It was extremely rare when one player was able to tackle him, it took a team effort. It was kind of like watching Marshawn Lynch run the ball. His 154 yards rushing per game ranked as second in the county. He was also the only player in the county to carry the ball at least 40 times in a single game…. and he did it twice. Nobody had more kickoff return yardage as well, and he averaged 32.6 yards per kick return.
