Athean Renfro is Texas Southern’s bruising bell cow with legit touchdown pop
In the 2025 season, Athean Renfro emerged as Texas Southern’s workhorse, piling up 820 rushing yards and 7 rushing touchdowns while averaging 5.7 yards per carry; he was also the Tigers’ clear stat leader on the ground. A 5'9", 225-pound back from Beaumont, Texas, Renfro brings a compact, physical style that shows up in short-yardage and late-game situations, including a go-ahead touchdown against Mississippi Valley State. If you want a downhill runner who can carry volume and finish drives, he’s a very real fit.
