Happy 25th.

One of the (few) bright spots on this team this season. He might well be Joe Schoen's best pick as Giants' GM, value-adjusted at least.

Happy birthday!   He seems to be the real deal.  Looking forward to watching him run some more.

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

Why did he stay in college so long? Enjoy him now. In 3 years after his rookie contract expires he will be 28 and won't be extended. 28 is dinosaur years for a RB.

I think he wasn't even a RB initially. Played WR. Reinvented himself.

I suspect a combination of what Jeff @DaveBrown74 said and NIL allows college players to make good money in college.

I'm talking about his eligibility. How did he stay eligible for 7 years?

He had a redshirt year and then an extra COVID year.
