a compact, productive Rhode Island back with proven scoring punch
Markey Clarke was a rotational but efficient RB for Rhode Island, appearing in nine games in 2017, making one start, and finishing with 211 rushing yards and two touchdowns, including a 31-yard, one-score effort that shows he can contribute in limited touches.[1] The main reason to care: he offers short-area running value and red-zone usefulness rather than eye-popping volume, which can make him a fit for teams needing a dependable depth back who can finish drives.[1][3] Publicly available source material is thin on deeper traits like injury history or personality, so the best-supported evaluation is that he was a modestly productive college runner with some touchdown pop.[1][3]
