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.
