Dre’ Nelson brings burst, balance, and big-play juice to Princeton’s backfield
Dre’ Nelson is a change-of-pace Princeton RB with proven explosiveness and versatility: in the 2015 season, he posted 203 rushing yards on just 35 carries for 5.8 yards per carry, plus 121 receiving yards and 2 total rushing touchdowns. His best trait is the ability to create chunk plays—he’s shown acceleration, receiving ability, and enough wiggle to make defenders miss in space. That makes him useful in a complementary role for teams that want a back who can stress defenses horizontally and add a little spark without needing feature-back volume.
