a Marist back with a classic downhill edge
Curtis Defeo’s Marist profile shows a 6-foot-1, 205-pound running back build that fits a physical, north-south role, but there’s no current 2026 stat line available in the retrieved sources to prove a breakout yet[1]. He looks like the kind of back who can bring toughness, contact balance, and reliable carry volume rather than flashy open-field fireworks[1]. If you need an RB who can embrace a grind-it-out identity and add depth to a run-first room, he’s worth a close look; if you want a pure speed merchant, this may not be your guy[1].
