Navy’s compact, quick-hit back with special-teams value
Trai Ferguson is a 5-7, 165-pound Navy back from Richmond who brings a low-center-of-gravity, quick-footed style and a “every snap matters” mentality to the Midshipmen’s run-heavy attack[2][5]. In the 2024 season, Navy listed him as a sophomore SB/RB, which suggests he’s more of a versatile, space-friendly weapon than a pound-it-between-the-tackles hammer[2][7]. The appeal: burst, toughness, and a fit for a disciplined system that rewards effort and efficiency over flash. The caution: he is undersized for the position, so the best fit is a team that values speed, leverage, and special-teams grit[2][5].
