Houston Christian RB with HS Pedigree, Steady College Grinder
RJ Smith, a former District 19-6A Offensive MVP who led the Houston area in rushing as a 2018 Tompkins HS junior (23 TDs, top-100 in Texas), brings battle-tested vision and burst to Houston Christian—racking up 96 rush yards on 31 carries plus 60 receiving yards across 11 games in 2022. Now at Roosevelt with 347 yards on 90 carries (3.9 avg, 1 TD) in recent action, his differentiator is relentless intensity as a starter who plays all downs without injury flags, making him a perfect fit for teams needing a durable, versatile RB who elevates in big moments.
