Shepard Little brings proven RB production and steady big-play juice to Eastern Illinois
Shepard Little is a productive, physical Eastern Illinois running back who has already shown he can handle real volume, finishing his 2024 season with 435 rushing yards and 6 touchdowns on 93 carries while starting three of 11 games. His best trait is reliability: he runs with enough burst and balance to finish drives, and his workload suggests the staff trusts him in meaningful snaps. For a team looking for a back who can contribute right away without needing a long runway, he looks like a solid fit.
