Running back Anthony McFarland Jr. is known for one thing. Speed. You see it on tape, you see it in his testing, blazing a 4.44 40 at the Combine. But in an interview with Steelers.com’s Missi Matthews, Maryland head coach Mike Locksley made the point that he isn’t just about running fast. McFarland is a complete player.
“A lot more than just a speed guy,” Locksley told Matthews. “He’s a guy unfortunately who played his senior year with a bad wheel, a high ankle sprain. It’s a nagging injury. What he showed me is that he was capable of playing through it.
