Jalen John brings proven downhill production and usable all-purpose upside to Coastal Carolina
In the 2024 season at UMass, Jalen John posted 583 rushing yards and 5 touchdowns on 111 carries, then moved to Coastal Carolina with a profile built on compact power, speed, and enough receiving touch to stay on the field in multiple roles. EA Sports College Football 26 grades him as an 80 OVR with strong marks for speed, acceleration, trucking, and ball carrier vision, which matches the film-and-stat picture of a physical runner who can finish runs and create chunk plays. For a team, he fits as a reliable, tough complement back with upside if given volume.
