Zaon Laney brings efficient, downhill juice to New Haven’s backfield
In the 2025 season, Zaon Laney showed efficient RB production for New Haven, posting 41 rushing yards on 8 carries in his regular-season stat line, and in 2026 he’s listed as a senior back on the Chargers’ roster. He has the kind of compact, physical profile that can keep an offense on schedule, and New Haven’s preseason All-Conference recognition suggests the staff values his role. His value is in dependable, no-drama toughness: short-area burst, downhill intent, and enough versatility to matter in both game flow and scoring situations.
