41. Austin Ekeler

Austin Ekeler is an intriguing running back to rank on any list, as to date, he has yet to rush for over 1,000 yards in a season. However, year by year, he has proven himself to be a solid dual-threat back in professional football.

Undrafted from Western State in 2017, Ekeler made the Chargers, playing in a reserve capacity, but would break out in his third season, starting eight Games and accumulating over 1,500 Yards from Scrimmage. Missing six Games in 2020 due to injury, Ekeler was money in 2021 and 2022, leading the NFL in Touchdowns with a combined YFS close to 3,200.  Ekeler's production fell in 2023 (1,064 YFS/6 TDs), and he signed with the Washington Commanders at season's end.

Ekeler overall compiled 8.239 Yards From Scrimmage with 69 Touchdowns.
