Kevin Lalin is giving Chattanooga a bruising, workhorse back with real bite
In the 2026 season, Chattanooga senior RB Kevin Lalin has opened as the Mocs’ tone-setter, piling up 192 rushing yards and 1 touchdown on 43 carries through two games while also adding 12 receiving yards. His calling card is downhill consistency: in the opener, he handled 30 carries for 128 yards, broke 100 yards in his debut, and was stopped for a loss only once. At 5-foot-9, 197 pounds, he looks like a compact, physical chain-mover who can absorb volume, bring veteran steadiness, and fit a team that wants a tough, reliable early-down runner.
