"Let's dive into the tape of Jeremiyah Love, a dynamic athlete whose combination of acceleration, vision, and hands in space makes him an ideal fit for an offense that wants to stress defenses horizontally and vertically. Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love 2026 NFL Draft Scouting Report Notes: Height: 5-foot-10Weight: 210 poundsExpected 40 Yard Dash Time: 4.38-4.45 secondsRecruiting:No. 39 overall prospect in 2023 recruiting class. Top-5 running back nationally."
"- Explosive accelerator who hits top speed almost immediately and can consistently beat linebackers to the edge. Track type of speed who ran 10.54 seconds in the 100 meters in high school.- Allows blocks to develop. Understands how to manipulate second-level defenders.- Outstanding contact balance for his size. Rarely goes down on first contact and routinely falls forward.- Home-run ability every time he touches the ball. Can score from anywhere on the field."
"Love is everything teams want from a modern NFL bellcow back. He brings true three-down value with explosive playmaking ability and advanced football instincts, along with the burst through the hole to create chunk plays, which elevate the offense without requiring heavy volume. - Negatives: - Can run a bit upright, which will expose him to bigger hits at the second level.- While physical, he is not a pure power back who will consistently move piles."
Jeremiyah Love measured 5-foot-10 and 210 pounds with an expected 4.38-4.45 40-yard dash and elite straight-line speed. He totaled 2,882 rushing yards, 36 touchdowns, and averaged 6.7 yards per carry across 433 attempts in three seasons, finishing third in Heisman voting in 2025. Love pairs immediate acceleration and vision with reliable hands, contact balance, and the ability to create chunk plays. He consistently allows blocks to develop and can manipulate second-level defenders. Limitations include an upright running posture that can invite larger hits and a relative lack of consistent power to regularly move piles.
