Marcus Taylor II gives Tennessee State a bruising, pro-style RB look
Marcus Taylor II is a 6-foot, 222-pound running back from Memphis whose profile has long been built on power and size rather than flash, and he has spent time at Tennessee State and later Memphis on the college football path.[1][3][4] In the 2026 Tennessee State roster context, he is listed as a Tigers back, but publicly available stat lines are thin, so the strongest read is that he projects as a downhill runner with a physical edge more than a volume-leader right now.[1][11] If your team wants a tough, contact-loving back who can fit a north-south run game, he’s intriguing; if you need a proven stat-sheet producer with a heavy recent workload, the evidence is still limited.[1][3][11]
