Missouri State running back Tobias Little declares for NFL Draft

A running back who was instrumental in the turnaround of Missouri State football's success announced that he will enter the NFL Draft.

Tobias Little, a 6-foot-0, 230-pound power back, tweeted his intention on Friday.

Little joined the Bears in December 2020 after transferring from Louisville — where he was recruited by current MSU head coach Bobby Petrino. He played the 2021 spring season with the Bears and ran for 260 yards on 64 carries.

He broke out the following fall while rushing for 592 yards and nine touchdowns on 129 attempts. He averaged 4.6 yards per carry while showing a new burst of speed and quickness in addition to the power back he already proved to be.
