Idaho’s Workhorse Back With Versatile Playmaking Juice
In the 2023 season, Nick Romano was a true all-around weapon for Idaho, appearing in all 13 games and producing 519 rushing yards on 109 carries, plus 184 receiving yards on 15 catches and five total touchdowns. What makes him interesting isn’t just the volume—it’s the versatility: he can handle backfield touches, contribute as a receiver, and even add value on a trick/playmaking package. At 4.8 yards per carry, he showed efficient production and the kind of dependable, competitive profile that coaches love in a complementary RB.
