2025 Projections
Entering 2025 NFL Draft
Sampson (lower body) will enter the 2025 NFL Draft, Patrick Brown of 247Sports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sampson closed out an impressive three-year career in Rocky Top with Tennessee in 2024, amassing 258 carries for 1,493 yards and 22 touchdowns, all SEC-best marks. He totaled only two carries in the CFP First Round contest against Ohio State last Saturday, so it will be worth monitoring to ensure nothing more comes of it. Sampson joins a loaded running back class in the 2025 NFL Draft, but he's certainly in the conversation to be selected in the first few rounds, depending on how well he shows at the NFL Combine.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Grabbed by Steelers in Brugler mock
In a seven-round mock draft from Dane Brugler of The Athletic, Sampson is selected by the Steelers in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 83rd overall.
ANALYSIS
After serving in a backup role in Tennessee for two seasons, Sampson emerged as the lead back for the Volunteers in 2024, earning the SEC Player of the Year award after turning 258 carries for 1,491 yards and 22 touchdowns. Although undersized at 5-foot-8, Sampson would give the Steelers a physical and elusive runner to pair up with Jaylen Warren in the backfield. Pittsburgh is expected to add a running back through the draft following Najee Harris' departure to the Chargers in March.
