Purdue Football: Running Back Depth Chart

19 days away.

19!

Purdue Football is sneaking up on us and I couldn’t be more excited. As I watch College Football all weekend, I am ready to see what our Boilermakers can do in the Big Ten West later this month.

Last week, I wrote about the Quarterbacks and why I think Jack Plummer is the guy that will win the job. Today, we will take a look at running back, a position which has been ran by committee in years past, something that I think Coach Brohm and Coach Barlcay prefer.

  1. King Doerue - 5-10, 220 Pounds, Sophomore, 2019 Stats: 451 yards, 5 touchdowns, 128 yards receiving 2 touchdown receptions
  2. Zander Horvath - 6-3, 230 Pounds, Junior, 2019 stats: 79 carries, 377 yards, 2 touchdowns, 17 receptions, 142 yards, 1 touchdown

The backfield is finally starting to get a bit older.
