Dylan Edwards is an elite-level running back who most recently signed for the Kansas State Wildcats. He began his high school football career with Derby High School where he was a coveted four-star prospect and the No.11 running back in the class of 2023. Dylan was rated as one of the top running backs in the class of 2023 and rushed for 6,426 yards and 95 touchdowns on 622 carries out of the 36 games he played in his four years with the Derby Panthers. The 5-foot-9, 165-pound prodigy helped Derby secure two Kansas 6A State Championships as a freshman and as a sophomore.

Edwards started on his collegiate football journey with Colorado over offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan State, Minnesota, Mississippi State and Oklahoma in 2023. He knew it would be a huge transition from high school to Power 5 football, so decided to join the Colorado Buffs.

As a true freshman, Edwards saw action in all 12 games, rushing for 321 yards and one touchdown with 36 carries while adding 36 receptions for 299 yards and four touchdowns. He became the first true freshman in the school’s history to garner more than 250 rushing and receiving yards in the same season.

After an outstanding season with the Buffs, the former Kansas Gatorade Player of the Year decided to enter the transfer portal in April 2024 and announced his commitment to the Kansas State Wildcats.
