The Maryland football position preview series carries on with the running back room. The Terps return a few explosive options out of the backfield, and the room promises to be deep in 2022.
Maryland will need to fill the production void left by Tayon Fleet-Davis, who wrapped up his college career in 2021 and signed a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent. The Terps return their second- and third-leading rushers, though, in sophomore Colby McDonald and senior Challen Faamatau. Promising redshirt freshmen backs Roman Hemby and Antwain Littleton also return, while incoming freshman Ramon Brown has a chance to be impactful in year one.
