Xavier Rucker brings big-play balance and dual-threat juice to New Mexico State
Rucker profiles as a high-upside running back who can stress defenses both on the ground and as a receiver, after a junior season with 1,120 rushing yards, 11 rushing touchdowns, 17 catches, 281 receiving yards, and two receiving scores. That production suggests a back who can handle volume *and* create explosives, not just grind out carries. He looks like a fit for an offense that wants versatility from the RB room, especially if it values playmaking in space and mismatches out of the backfield.
