Iowa’s 2024 breakout bulldozer with home-run juice
In the 2024 season, Kaleb Johnson turned into one of the Big Ten’s most dangerous backs, rushing for 1,537 yards and 21 touchdowns while averaging 6.4 yards per carry for Iowa. He’s a downhill runner with rare burst for a Hawkeye, plus enough vision and balance to create chunk plays instead of just grinding out yards. The differentiator: he produced like a feature back in a run-heavy offense and showed he can handle volume without losing efficiency. If you want a physical, explosive RB who can carry an offense, this is your guy.
