TJ Peyton brings downhill burst and return-game value to Georgia State
TJ Peyton is a compact, physical **downhill runner** who pairs a reported 4.5-second 40-yard dash with a strong 275-pound clean press, giving Georgia State a back who can run through contact and add immediate special-teams value. In his 2025 season, he logged 12 carries for 65 yards and also served as the Panthers’ primary kick returner with 365 return yards, so the appeal is not just raw rushing upside but versatility and toughness. That mix makes him a useful fit for teams wanting a durable, high-energy back with playmaking juice beyond standard box-score stats.
