Versatile Syracuse Back with NFL Pedigree
The 5'11", 180-pound running back from Monmouth Junction, NJ, carved out a solid four-year career at Syracuse, accumulating 1,717 rushing yards on 432 carries (4.0 avg.) across 47 games with 27 starts. Strickland demonstrated reliability and consistency rather than explosive athleticism, with his best performance coming against Boston College in 2018 when he rushed for a career-high 129 yards. His NFL signing with the Arizona Cardinals validates his professional potential. Best suited for teams seeking a dependable, lunch-pail back who can contribute on special teams and in committee roles.
