Carson Hansen is Iowa State’s hard-nosed, big-play RB with real bell-cow juice
In the 2025 season, Carson Hansen powered Iowa State with 952 rushing yards on 188 carries and 6 rushing touchdowns, while also adding 19 catches for 134 yards—an efficient, physical workload that hints at every-down value. His best calling card is balance: he can finish runs, create after contact, and has already shown a long-game gear with a 65-yard rush. He also strung together five straight 100-yard games to close 2025, which screams momentum and confidence. If you want a dependable, tough RB who can carry an offense, he’s a strong fit.
