Tyree Diggs brings freshman spark to Norfolk State’s backfield
Tyree Diggs is a freshman RB at Norfolk State in the 2026 season, listed at 5-foot-8 and 180 pounds with hometown roots in Newport News, Virginia.[1][2][3][6] The early read is a compact, homegrown back with the frame to handle contact and the kind of lower-body leverage that usually travels well in college football. He’s not a proven stat monster yet, but that’s exactly why he’s interesting: he looks like a developmental piece with upside, and Norfolk State is betting on his toughness, burst, and potential to grow into a reliable rotational runner.[1][3][6]
