RB JR California
About Vargas Updated Jun 2, 2026

Efficient, downhill back who turned 67 carries into 445 yards and 5 TDs in 2025

Vargas looks like a compact, productive RB who made the most of his touches in 2025, averaging 6.6 yards per carry with 445 rushing yards and 5 touchdowns on 67 attempts across eight games. That kind of efficiency suggests a runner who can finish drives and create chunk gains without needing heavy volume. The main appeal is fit: he profiles as a dependable, physical back with upside as a low-maintenance piece in a balanced offense, rather than a pure stat-compiler.
