Washington Player Profile: RB Jonah Coleman

Washington has one of the more physical running backs I've had a chance to cover up close in Jonah Coleman the Arizona transfer running back is 5 foot n 225 pounds and his running style might remind you of a bowling ball going down the lane he's got a low center of gravity he's very difficult to bring to the ground it takes several guys to get him on a tackle but he's more than just a ground and pound runu over running back he's Shifty at the point of attack and can really explode through holes when they open up on the offensive line and the guys a really impressive athlete all around we saw him doing cartwheels and back flips at practice on regular occasion Jed fish said that's normal doesn't concern him at all the physicality that Jonah Coleman brings to The Back Field this year for Washington is going to be very important because it's a young offensive line with not a ton of experience if and when the Run Lane isn't there he can make one himself he's also a solid Blocker in the back field that will help this offense a lot next season and he brings over 1200 yards and nine rushing touchdowns to the Washington backfield this fall B
