Good to go Saturday Hansen is off the injury report ahead of Saturday's game versus BYU.

Impact Hansen, who was previously listed as probable due to a concussion, is now off the injury report ahead of Saturday's contest. In his six games prior to injury he gained 436 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns, so he is set to be utilized heavily in his return to the field.

Probable to play in Week 9 Hansen (concussion) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against BYU.

Impact Hansen was reportedly mentioned to be at full strength in practice Tuesday, and this injury report suggests the tailback is trending in the right direction to play this weekend. Hansen has 79 carries for 348 yards and two touchdowns in 2025. His return would send Abu Sama to a backup role.

Back at 'full strength' Hansen (concussion) is back at full strength for Iowa State, per Eugene Rapay of the Des Moines Register.

Impact Hansen missed Week 7 against Colorado, but the tailback appears to be trending in the right direction after the Cyclones' bye. Hansen looks slated to play against BYU on Saturday afternoon, especially given that head coach Matt Campbell described him as at "full strength." In Hansen's absence, Abu Sama ran wild for 177 yards on 24 carries, but his return should enable Iowa State to deploy both backs and keep them fresh.

Out vs. Colorado Hansen (concussion) is listed as out for Iowa State's clash with Colorado.

Impact Hansen was listed as questionable earlier this week on the Big 12 injury report, but he's now been downgraded to out. The Cyclones' starting tailback, who's amassed 348 yards and two touchdowns on the ground with 11 catches for 88 yards through six games, will miss his first game of the season. In his stead, expect Abu Sama to assume lead back duties.

OCTOBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Officially questionable for Week 7 Hansen (concussion) is questionable to play Saturday at Colorado.

Impact This is far from being a surprise, as Hansen had already been listed as questionable for this contest. A decision on his status will be made closer to Saturday's 3:30 p.m. ET kickoff. If Hansen is unable to play, expect Abu Sama to handle most of the rushing workload in his absence.

Deemed questionable ahead of CU Hansen (concussion) is questionable for Iowa State's clash with Colorado, per Eugene Rapay of the Des Moines Register.

Impact The tailback suffered a concussion in Iowa State's loss to Cincinnati in Week 6, sitting out the second half. Hansen, who's logged 348 yards and two touchdowns on 4.4 yards per carry this season, remains a question mark as he works through the concussion protocol. Meanwhile, Abu Sama should be in line to handle any carries Hansen is forced to relinquish.

OCTOBER 4, 2025 • DESMOINESREGISTER.COM

Suffers concussion Hansen didn't play in the second half of Saturday's game against Cincinnati after sustaining a concussion, according to Travis Hines of The Des Moines Register.

Impact Hansen was limited to six carries in Saturday's 38-30 loss, racking up 33 yards, and he also accrued one catch for 11 yards. He should be considered questionable to play against Colorado next Saturday, but if he can't go, then Abu Sama should handle most of the carries going forward.

Dominates workload versus Wildcats Hansen had 19 rushes for 63 yards and two touchdowns and caught 3 of 4 targets for 31 yards during Saturday's 39-14 win over Arizona.

Impact Hansen added his first touchdowns of the season as he dominated the share of the workload in the backfield. Teammate Abu Sama had 12 carries for 26 yards against Arizona. QB Rocco Becht did have three rushing touchdowns, all coming from the one-yard line. Hansen is Iowa State's primary running back and should be a steady start for fantasy rosters at Cincinnati next week.

Double-digit touches once again Hansen compiled 11 carries for 46 yards and caught all three targets for six yards during Saturday's 16-13 win versus Iowa.

Impact Hansen has recorded double-digit touches in all three games this season. He's been quite active in the passing game with six catches (on nine targets) for 32 yards through the first three games. While the volume has been a positive, it has been limited as Abu Sama also received 14 total touches against the Hawkeyes. Moving forward, it appears that Iowa State is comfortable utilizing both backs. Both should find success at Arkansas State next week.

Ten touches in blowout win Hansen accrued nine rushes for 19 yards and reeled in his only target for seven yards during Saturday's 55-7 win over South Dakota.

Impact Hansen wasn't asked to do much against the Coyotes as Iowa State scored early and often. It was likely a strategic move for the Cyclones to rest one of their best offensive players as they gear up for their in-state rivalry game with the Iowa Hawkeyes. Hansen was not a prominent part of the offensive gameplan yet when they played last year as he had just two carries for two yards and two catches for five yards. He'll look to have a much bigger impact this year.

Splits workload in win Hansen had 16 rushes for 71 yards and gathered in all two targets for 19 yards during Saturday's 24-21 victory versus Kansas State.

Impact Hansen had the most volume out of the backfield for the Cyclones; however, it wasn't by a large margin. Teammate Abu Sama had 14 carries for 43 yards as the bulk of the game was dominated by running backs. Sama had a critical fumble around the end-zone early in the game and was less efficient overall at 3.1 yards per carry compared to Hansen's 4.4 yards per game. Hansen does appear to be the primary back for the team although both are expected to get carries against South Dakota next week.
