Jaden Meizinger brings compact, efficient downhill juice to Drake’s backfield
In the 2025 season, Jaden Meizinger turned 67 carries into 333 rushing yards and 1 rushing touchdown for Drake, while adding 4 catches for 34 yards and another score, showing he can contribute on all three downs.[3][8] At 5'8" and 190 pounds, he looks like a low-center-of-gravity, contact-friendly runner with proven production from his Keiser days, where he logged more than 4,100 rushing yards and 52 touchdowns across 58 games before transferring in.[5][14] He’s not a pure track-star back, but he does offer toughness, experience, and steady efficiency that can fit well in a rotation or complementary role.[1][5]
