Samford RB John Collins brings a small-but-real sample of burst and efficiency
John Collins has limited college production so far, but his early Samford rushing numbers show efficiency: in the 2023 season he logged 3 carries for 19 yards after 2 carries for 1 yard in 2022, suggesting he can turn touches into steady gains.[1] His appeal is as a low-ego depth back who could fit a system that values reliability and patience more than volume, though there is not enough public data here to strongly project major upside, durability concerns, or elite traits beyond the modest production sample.[1]
