Round 4 – Zack Moss

Zack Moss had an incredibly productive career at the University of Utah with three straight years over 1,000 rushing yards and double digit touchdowns each season. This past season was by far his best with 1,416 rushing yards, 388 receiving yards and 17 total touchdowns.

The concern around Moss was he had knee surgery in 2018 however ESPN’s Adam Schefter tweeted this week that the knee “checked out well”.

NFL teams notified Utah RB Zack Moss, who underwent knee surgery in 2018, that his surgically repaired knee checked out well, per his agent Jamal Tooson. Moss’ knee was a concern for teams and the player coming into the process, but this was his best-case scenario.

Moss has a similar build to Cam Akers at 5’9″ and 223 pounds and would play a similar role as a bruising running back that could wear opposing defenses down. He also could be utilized in those short yardage and goal line situations and could make an impact right away as a rookie.
