Chris Franklin brings efficient rushing upside and big-play burst to the Citadel
Franklin profiles as a compact, efficient back/TE-type weapon who has shown real explosiveness with UT Martin, including 103 rushing yards on 18 carries in 2024 and a 5.7 yards-per-carry mark, plus a 43-yard run and three receiving yards that hint at usable versatility. His differentiators are speed, momentum, and playmaking on limited touches, while his background in a championship high school program suggests competitive toughness. He looks like a fit for a team that values multi-role offensive flexibility and explosive efficiency over high-volume usage.
