Dallan Hayden just recently transferred to Colorado from Ohio State where he had 19 carries for 110 yards and one touchdown. However, he did average 5.8 yards a carry in 2023 and will now be the lead back at Colorado with the departure of Dylan Edwards. Hayden comes in as a young ball carrier in a very high-powered offense. Hayden will have the support of the quarterback Shedeur Sanders and a very strong wide receiver core around him. The running game just might be the weakest point of this offense, other than the offensive line.
