Texas A&M junior running back Isaiah Spiller will forgo his final season with the Aggies and enter the 2022 NFL Draft. He made the announcement Tuesday with a post on social media detailing his decision.
Spiller rushed for 1,011 yards and six touchdowns as a junior, his second consecutive 1,000-yard season. For his career, Spiller finishes with 2,993 yards rushing on 541 attempts, an average of 5.5 yards per carry.
“With great Aggie pride, I am announcing my decision to forgo my remaining eligibility and enter the 2022 NFL Draft,” Spiller wrote, in part.
According to Spiller’s scouting report from 247Sports national recruiting analyst Gabe Brooks, his skills translate to the next level and based on his production in the nation’s most competitive league, it’s hard to argue that point.
“Good size and frame for a high-volume candidate at the running back position,” Brooks wrote in his 2018 evaluation. “At 6-foot, can probably get to the 220- to 225-pound range in college and provide some big-back punch. Impressive production at a high level of high school competition (Texas Class 6A in Houston area).
Limited receiving production, but experience lining up in the slot as a true receiver. Shows encouraging pass-catching ability in those limited opportunities. Capable cutback runner and jump-cutter who can level his way across the field. Not a make-you-miss runner, but subtle enough in lateral mobility to slip defenders in space.
