Byron Cardwell Jr. gives San Diego State a proven, physical RB with burst and upside
Byron Cardwell Jr. is a seasoned, downhill running back who brings size, burst, and real game experience to San Diego State after stops at Oregon and California; in his career he has 144 carries for 835 rushing yards, 15 catches for 176 yards, and 7 total touchdowns[3]. He stands out as a strong fit for teams that want a physical back who can handle contact, finish runs, and contribute when healthy, though his value is shaped by a longer development path and the need to stay on the field consistently[3][6].
