Later, he attended O’Dea High School in Seattle, Washington. He ran for 1,567 yards and 25 touchdowns in his last season, down from 2,182 yards and 35 in his junior year. After graduating from high school, he enrolled at the University of Washington to play NCAA football for the Huskies.

He carried the ball five times or less in just six of the games he started for Miami in 2021.
On the 9-8 club, Jaylen Waddle was his closest competition for second place with 846 yards from scrimmage, but while he shared the load with Duke Johnson, the Dolphins limped to an NFL-second-worst 3.5 yards per run. High points included wins over the New York Jets in Week 15 and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 5, as well as 10 receptions for 74 yards and two touchdowns.
