Towering 6-3 Texas-Bred RB Bringing Rare Size and Versatility to Rhode Island Rams

Nathan Holmes, a 6-3, 234-pound junior running back for the Rhode Island Rams, stands out with his imposing frame and two-way potential, ranked as the No. 37 national athlete and No. 80 Texas recruit by 247Sports from his high school days at Memorial (Port Arthur, TX). Versatile enough to play both sides of the ball—as highlighted in his 2016 URI bio as an All-Star performer—Holmes offers fullback power, track-proven endurance (e.g., 17:38.63 in the college 5000m), and raw upside for CAA contenders. Ideal fit for teams needing a bruising, multi-tool back with NFL developmental traits.
