James Owens brings veteran burst and all-purpose spark to FAMU
James Owens’ profile at Florida A&M is built on speed, versatility, and big-play juice rather than volume: in 2012 he was praised for a 157-yard, 3-touchdown rushing performance and a 282-yard all-purpose explosion, and FAMU described him as the fastest player on the team with kick-return value. The fit is obvious if a team wants an explosive, space-creating back who can flip field position; the caution is durability and consistency, since his college path included an academic redshirt and a stop-start career arc.
