LaDamian McDowell adds efficient, hard-running depth to Lamar’s backfield
McDowell is coming off a productive 2025 season at Lamar, where he logged 58 carries for 365 yards and 2 touchdowns, showing efficient work at 6.3 yards per carry.[2] His appeal is as a compact, productive running back who can create positive yardage without needing high volume, and his Texas background includes all-district recognition in high school, suggesting a proven track record of production.[2][3] For a team, he looks like a useful fit if you want a reliable, downhill runner who can complement a committee or handle situational carries rather than carry the entire offense.
