Kevin Beverly’s north-south burst made him Hampton’s touchdown finisher in 2007
In the 2007 season, Kevin Beverly was Hampton’s most reliable power back, finishing with 143 carries for 598 yards and 9 touchdowns, including a 204-yard, 4-touchdown explosion against North Carolina A&T in an earlier Hampton performance note[6][7]. Hampton’s own outlook described him as a physical north-south runner who could also catch the ball out of the backfield, which is exactly the kind of bruising, versatile RB profile that helps in short-yardage and red-zone packages[8]. A reported ankle injury in 2007 slowed him at times, but when healthy he looked like a tough, chain-moving fit for a team needing efficient, downhill production[11].
