Rush Through the Roster: #24 Bradley Battles

#24 - Bradley Battles - 5-9 206-pounds - RB - RS Junior - Marianna, FL (Marianna HS)

2011 stats:  Battles was suspended the first two games last season due to violation of team rules.  He finished the year with 3 carries for 4 yards.

Position on the depth chart:  Battles is listed as the number 3 running back coming out of the spring practices, tied with Marcus Shaw.

2012 projection: Battles is an enigma for fans.  The former 4-star recruit started one game in his career, but has not lived up to the hype that followed him coming out high school.  He missed time in 2010 due to an ACL injury and was a non-factor last year as he recovered and did not show out enough in practice.  Now with the running back position thin at depth, he has a prime opportunity to prove himself at practice and get onto the field and contribute.
