Craig Cunningham brings special-teams toughness and high-school pedigree to Tennessee State
Cunningham’s 2024 production was modest, with 12 rushing yards on six carries, but he stood out more as a versatile, physical contributor: he returned nine kickoffs for 146 yards, handled special-teams duty, and finished with four tackles. Tennessee State’s roster notes also show a strong high-school resume—1,537 rushing yards and 22 touchdowns as a senior—suggesting real playmaking upside. For a team, he looks like a depth-and-energy fit rather than a finished feature back: dependable, competitive, and useful in multiple phases, especially on special teams.[3][10]
