Compact Powerhouse RB for Norfolk State with High-Impact Potential
Jaylen Parham, a 5'7", 215-lb running back from Virginia Beach, brings rare compact power and low-center-of-gravity explosiveness to Norfolk State's RB corps, making him a natural fit for teams needing a physical, between-the-tackles threat. Though his 2025 stats show limited action (6 carries, 20 yards), his size-speed profile and high school pedigree (7,163 rushing yards at Green Run HS) suggest untapped upside. Parham is known for intense, relentless running style and a no-doubt mentality—traits that elevate him beyond raw numbers. With no reported injury history and a senior-level mindset in 2026, he's a high-upside fit for teams seeking a durable, hard-nosed back who can grind in the trenches and punch through contact.
