Evan Hampton is a power-speed RB prospect with elite production and proven big-game punch
Evan Hampton enters Vanderbilt as one of Kentucky’s top 2026 backs, pairing a 6-foot, 208-pound frame with rare production: 1,835 rushing yards, 28 rushing touchdowns, and 11.5 yards per carry in his senior season, plus 280 receiving yards and three more scores. He’s a high-end fit for a team that wants a runner who can create explosive plays, finish runs, and contribute as a receiver, and his 326-yard playoff explosion shows he can tilt games when it matters most.
