Jonathan Askew brings all-purpose juice to Mercyhurst’s backfield
In the 2025 season, Jonathan Askew showed a compact, versatile skill set for Mercyhurst: 19 carries for 91 yards, plus a receiving contribution, while his 2024 season added 98 rushing yards, 33 receiving yards, a punt-return touchdown, and a blocked kick—proof he can help in multiple phases[2][5][10]. At 5-9, 200 pounds, he profiles as a physical, willing runner with special-teams value and a little extra pop beyond the box score, which makes him a useful fit for teams that want toughness, versatility, and hidden-yardage impact[2][12][15].
