Brayden Latham is EKU’s steady, physical chain-mover with preseason recognition
In the 2025 season, Brayden Latham led Eastern Kentucky’s running backs with 667 rushing yards and 3 rushing touchdowns, then opened 2026 as a senior captain with Preseason All-UAC honors. He’s a 5-foot-11, 216-pound back who brings reliable volume, north-south toughness, and enough receiving ability to stay on the field in multiple situations. His 2026 opener showed the workload is still his to carry, and the fit is clear: a coach looking for a dependable, physical runner who can handle touches without getting cute will like him.
