old-school Wofford fullback with proven short-yardage grit
Chase Nelson has been a classic Wofford bruiser in the 2017 season, giving the Terriers a dependable fullback presence at 5'10", 228 pounds and showing value in the dirty work that doesn’t always light up a stat sheet. In Wofford’s 2016 season, he carried 26 times for 75 yards and 2 touchdowns, and in the 2017 Furman game he punched in a 1-yard score, which is exactly the kind of low-red-tape, high-discipline production teams want from a fullback. He looks like a fit for a physical, downhill system that values toughness, leverage, and short-yardage reliability.
