Damonta Witherspoon brings efficient, proven production to Samford’s backfield
Witherspoon is a dependable, multi-year producer at running back who has shown he can handle volume and score efficiently: at Samford in 2023 he played all 11 games with 331 rushing yards and 5 touchdowns on 81 carries, and before that he posted 910 yards and 8 TDs at Murray State in 2022. His calling card is steady, physical chain-moving ability rather than splashy explosiveness, which makes him a good fit for teams that value reliability, toughness, and a back who can stay involved in the offense in multiple roles.
