UConn’s Homegrown Workhorse Turns Big Plays Into Big Production
Cam Edwards has been a reliable, high-efficiency RB for UConn, and in the 2025 season he exploded into a true feature back with 1,240 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns, plus five 100-yard games and scores in 11 of 13 games. He brings compact power at 5-11, 210, but the separator is his burst through contact and ability to pop chunk gains while staying productive week to week. Add in his Connecticut roots and proven workload tolerance, and he looks like a fit for teams wanting a tough, dependable back who can create splash plays without needing 25 touches to matter.
