Built Like a Power Back, Still a Development Project
In the 2025 season, Nik Sanders was a 6-2, 215-pound Texas running back with zero game stats recorded, so the story is more projection than production right now. His differentiators are size, multi-sport athleticism, and a tough, competitive profile from Waco’s University High, where he was also a standout baseball player and football athlete. The fit? Intriguing for a team that values upside and physicality, but he looks more like a developmental depth piece than an instant-impact RB.
