Andrew Chavez is Fresno State’s steady, hometown power back with a pro-style frame
In the 2026 season, Andrew Chavez has opened with 3 rushing yards on 1 carry for Fresno State, but the bigger story is the larger sample: in 2025 at Fresno City, he logged 257 yards and 2 touchdowns in 11 games, and in 2024 he produced 285 yards and 4 scores on 72 carries. He’s a 6-foot, 195-pound junior from Fresno who brings local grit, experience, and a compact downhill style that fits a physical run game. He’s not a flashy stat monster yet, but he looks like a reliable depth-piece with room to grow if your team values toughness and familiarity with the area game.
