Steve Pfister is Maryland’s physical, blue-collar depth piece at running back
A 6-foot-2, 234-pound junior, Steve Pfister is a converted linebacker who gives Maryland a rugged, versatile option with special-teams value and fullback depth rather than flashy feature-back numbers[1]. The Terps’ roster notes describe him as a strong backup candidate at fullback and a good special-teams player, which hints at a lunch-pail, do-everything mentality that coaches tend to love[1]. If a team wants size, toughness, and willingness to embrace role-player work, Pfister fits; if it wants explosive, stat-stuffing production, he’s more of a complementary piece than a headline grabber[1].
