Welcome to Day 14 of our 30 day countdown. We’re getting down to it, in just a few Saturdays, the Huskies will hit the field to take on the Boise State Broncos in the season opener! As with every season, there are a few players that are perhaps buried on the depth chart to start the season but end up contributing in major ways to team success throughout the year. My task here today is to list the players that I think could be that next major contributor so let’s get to it!
Richard Newton, RB
2022 Stats: 45 Attempts, 211 yards, 1 TD, 3 catches, 45 yards, 1 TD
I’ve been high on Richard Newton ever since his first game against Eastern Washington in 2019.
