Dynamic Penn State-to-USC RB Star from 2011-13, Now Retired NFL Veteran
Silas Redd Jr. exploded in 2011 at Penn State with 1,241 rushing yards (10th in program history) and five straight 100-yard games, leading all FBS with 703 October yards en route to second-team All-Big Ten honors; his transfer to USC showcased relentless intensity and versatility as a compact 5'9" powerhouse. Known for aggressive, personable drive, he's a proven big-game back—ideal for teams needing a tough, explosive RB2 with NFL pedigree (75 career pro yards), though retired since 2014 amid off-field issues.
