42-217 (5.2) vs AP in 2025. 986 yds and 10 TDs on almost 5 yards a carry in 2024, Darius is a patient but physical running back, who loves living in between the tackles. Patient in between the tackles, waits to strike and then boom, books it to the end zone. Reminiscent of James Conner. Coming off Aug 2024 Leg INJ. Spent the 2023 season as a teammate of Buffalo's rookie wide receiver Skyler Bell back when Bell was playing for the Wisconsin.

24-116 (4.8)-1 to JadanBaugh's 12-46-3.8-1. 24 for 116 (4.8), 1 TD in 2025 scouted win vs Florida, 15-66 (4.4), 1 catch for 8 vs ND. Only listed as probable, had a limited workload vs Pitt, with six carries for 19 yards (3.2), and also caught three passes for 22 yards and a TD. Rushing 216-1192-5.5-12 TD; Receiving 17-140-8.2-2TD in 2025. Need a thunder back with a power-running style to complement James Cook? How about Mark Fletcher, a RB with Miami connections (Manny Diaz, Jahmile Addae). Fletcher brings a physical, punishing style to the table that's becoming increasingly sought after as the antidote in today's spread-heavy NFL. Watch him as he posts 24 carries for 116 yards (4.8 YPC) and 1 TD in the 2025 scouted win vs Florida. Almost Cook-like in his receiving skills, Fletcher made seven catches out of backfield totaling 62 receiving yards. He suffered a Lisfranc injury in his left foot in November, but is back in action.
