Purdue Football: Running Back Depth Chart

Since Coach Brohm arrived, we had been pretty solid in the running game, up until last season. We started with a couple years of Markell Jones and D.J. Knox, both exceeded expectations in a pass first offense if you ask me, especially D.J. Knox.

The job was meant to be passed down with ease to Tario Fuller. Tario was the season opening starter for Coach Brohm in year one, until he hurt his knee, which lead to losing the rest of the season and essentially next.

2019 was supposed to be the year of Tario, but he broke his jaw in a freak accident at practice during a special teams drill.
