Texas A&M prepares for 2026 running back competition in training camp

Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko announced that the starting running back position will be decided during the team’s 2026 training camp. With veteran Le'Veon Moss leaving after the 2025 season, former five-star recruit Rueben Owens and rising sophomore Jamarion Morrow will be key competitors. Both players showcased potential last season, with Owens rushing for 639 yards and five touchdowns. Elko expressed confidence in both backs, noting their skill sets will be important for new offensive schemes. The team will evaluate their performance in preseason scrimmages, with a decision on a starter expected late in camp.
