42-217 (5.2) vs AP in 2025. 986 yds and 10 TDs on almost 5 yards a carry in 2024, Darius is a patient but physical running back, who loves living in between the tackles. Patient in between the tackles, waits to strike and then boom, books it to the end zone. Reminiscent of James Conner. Coming off Aug 2024 Leg INJ. Spent the 2023 season as a teammate of Buffalo's rookie wide receiver Skyler Bell back when Bell was playing for the Wisconsin.
Full player profileDean Kindig
10-40 (4.0) and 5 recepts for 25 vs Ohio State. After missing the entirety of the 2024 season due to a knee injury, Baxter suffered a season-ending injury in August 2024 during practice with a torn MCL and PCL, but he's on track to recover fully and the 2023 tape was a treat, showcasing great explosiveness and a career-high of 29 missed tackles forced. Considered a starting running back for the Texas Longhorns, though his availability is currently impacted by a hamstring injury. His cousin was RB Greg Bryant, who was shot, and he's friends with Rams WR KR Jordan Whittington.
