Maryland’s former Terp back with a short, efficient college track record
Dan Bonato is best known as a Maryland running back from the 2009 season, when he appeared in 9 games and posted 90 kick-return yards on 6 returns, averaging 15.0 yards per return[5]. His value profile is less about gaudy volume and more about versatility and “do-the-job” reliability, with Maryland’s roster/history pages and player listings confirming his Terps connection[2][3]. The big takeaway: he reads like a steady, multi-use depth piece rather than a headline grabber—useful if your team wants a player who can contribute in the margins and not blink when asked to do the unglamorous stuff[1][5].
