steady, physical back with big-play juice after a brief 2025 setback
In the 2025 season, Jamarian Samuel played the first four games for Georgia Southern before a season-ending undisclosed injury, finishing with 12 carries for 87 yards and a touchdown; the good news is he was back healthy enough to score in the spring game, which suggests he’s trending in the right direction[1][8]. At 5-foot-9 and 205 pounds, he brings a compact, downhill style with enough burst to pop a 36-yard run, and the Eagles’ roster lists him as a 6th-year back in 2026[1][2][7]. If your team wants a tough, experienced runner who can give you efficient carries and run angry, Samuel is a sneaky useful fit.
