Northwestern running back Drake Anderson has entered the transfer portal, according to Rivals.
Anderson led all Wildcat backs with 289 rushing yards in his redshirt sophomore season, adding two touchdowns on 4.1 yards per carry. He had standout games against Maryland (103 yds and 1 TD) and Nebraska (89 yards and 1 TD). The son of All-American NU running back Damien Anderson flashed his agility and open-field ability on several occasions but struggled with consistency.
He finishes his career in Evanston with 926 yards and five touchdowns on 4.1 YPC. It’s a bit of a surprising move, as Anderson started several games this season.
