Colgate’s name to watch in the backfield
Devon Watts is listed as a Colgate running back, but the available public data is thin on current-season production, so the key takeaway is profile rather than box-score dominance. Colgate’s 2026 team stats show a run-heavy offense with 213.5 rushing yards per game, which is usually a good stage for backs who can handle volume, stay efficient, and finish drives[8]. Watts’ longer-term recruiting bio shows he came in as a versatile back with return ability and a multi-sport athletic base, traits that often translate to toughness and open-field juice[3].
