Out in Denton Norton (undisclosed) won't be available Friday night against North Texas.

Impact Norton was carted off the field in the Bulls win over Charlotte, so it's unsurprising that the tailback won't be available despite reportedly being spotted on campus ahead of the Week 7 clash. Sam Franklin and Alvon Isaac should continue to lead the way in South Florida's backfield.

Carted off field Friday Norton (undisclosed) was carted off the field in Friday's game against Charlotte, Rivals.com reports.

Impact Norton got folded up awkwardly in a play late in the game and had to be carted off. Further updates on his condition should be delivered in due time, but it wouldn't be surprising if he has to miss time given the nature of the injury.

Touchdown in USF debut Norton notched seven carries for 15 yards and one touchdown and reeled in their only target for 24 yards during Thursday's 34-7 win versus Boise State.

Impact Norton was unable to produce many yards, but recorded a touchdown in his first game with the Bulls. The Charlotte transfer had a career-high seven rushing touchdowns last season and will look to bring his physical presence to USF's backfield this year.

AUGUST 31 • ROTOWIRE

Listed among four co-starters Norton is listed among four other co-starters at running back ahead of USF's opener against Boise State, the program announced.

Impact USF clearly doesn't want to give too much away with its initial two-deep, and it seems unlikely four tailbacks will share snaps and carries equally. Norton is listed as a starter alongside Sam Franklin, Alvon Isaac and Nykahi Davenport. Still, Norton figures to see plenty of work after he ran for 525 yards and seven scores with Charlotte last fall.

Scores twice Saturday Norton posted 10 rushes for 30 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in their only target for nine yards during Saturday's 59-24 defeat against South Florida.

Impact Although Norton only gained 30 yards Saturday, he scored two touchdowns which gave him a solid performance. He has now scored multiple touchdowns in three of his last five games. He faces two very favorable matchups to end the season, starting Saturday at FAU.

NOVEMBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Shut down Thursday Norton accrued five rushes for 21 yards during Thursday's 34-3 loss to Tulane.

Impact After receiving at least 10 carries in each of the previous five games, Norton saw just five in Thursday's blowout loss. He was also out-carried and out-rushed by Hahsaun Wilson who, with his 68 yards Thursday, is now the team's leading rusher on the season. Norton will likely still receive more carries than Wilson, but Wilson has proven to be the more efficient back.

NOVEMBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores twice versus Memphis Norton compiled 17 rushes for 86 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 33-28 loss versus Memphis.

Impact Norton scored a pair of touchdowns Saturday, his second multi-touchdown performance in the last three games. He also saw a season-high 17 carries and rushed for 86 yards, his second most this season. Norton has been very productive during the last three games, but he faces a tough matchup versus Tulane on Thursday.

Leads backfield in loss Norton notched 16 carries for 59 yards during Saturday's 51-17 defeat against Navy.

Impact Norton received a season-high 16 carries Saturday, more than double the number Hahsaun Wilson saw. Norton rushed for over 50 yards in his fourth consecutive game, giving him a decent floor. However, the 49ers will be significant underdogs in each of the next two games which hurts his chances to have a big performance.

OCTOBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores twice in Saturday's win Norton had 10 rushes for 88 yards and two touchdowns and gathered in 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 55-24 win over East Carolina.

Impact Norton scored his first two touchdowns of the season Saturday, an 11-yard rush early in the first quarter and then a 62-yard run at the end of the first half. He was out-shined by Hahsaun Wilson's 164-yard, three touchdown performance, but Norton has still received a slightly higher workload so far this season. The pair of backs are clearly splitting the backfield, and Wilson has proven to have the higher upside early on.

OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Leads rushing attack Saturday Norton compiled 11 rushes for 58 yards during Saturday's 52-14 loss against Indiana.

Impact Norton received the most carries on the team Saturday and was much more productive than Hahsaun Wilson who rushed eight times for 20 yards. Norton has received 10 touches in three of four games this season, but the production simply just hasn't been there. Although he looked good on Saturday, he will need to prove it again this Saturday at Rice to be trusted for the remainder of the season.

Struggles in Saturday's loss Norton logged 10 carries for 11 yards during Saturday's 30-7 defeat against James Madison.

Impact Norton rushed for just 1.1 yards per carry Saturday, a brutal way to start his 49ers career after transferring from Iowa State. It was especially rough for him given Terron Kellman (nine carries for 76 yards) and Hahsaun Wilson (five carries for 35 yards) looked much better. Even though he started in Saturday's loss, he may have lost out on that job after a rough season opener.

Impact Norton's 2022 and 2023 seasons were eerily similar. He logged exactly 87 carries for a little over 300 yards and multiple touchdowns. With at least two seasons of collegiate eligibility remaining, Norton will look to enroll at a school whose football team could make him a No. 1 option or close to being the No. 1 option.

NOVEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't make trip Saturday Norton didn't make the trip to Manhattan for Saturday's season finale veruss Kansas State, Travis Hines of The Des Moines Register reports.

Impact Norton joins Eli Sanders (undisclosed) among the backs who are unavailable for the Cyclones, leaving the team without its top two options. Abu Sama may serve as the team's top back in their absence, with freshman Carson Hansen also potentially in the mix.

NOVEMBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rumbles for TD against BYU Norton notched six rushes for 42 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 45-13 victory over Brigham Young.

NOVEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Adds two TDs against Bears Norton notched 10 carries for 58 yards and two touchdowns and caught his only target for seven yards during Saturday's 30-18 victory over Baylor.

Impact Norton notched his first two touchdowns of the season which matches his season total from a year ago. It was Eli Sanders who led the team with 14 carries for 90 yards, but it does appear that Norton is rounding in to form as he was dealing with a shoulder injury. Norton is a player to watch when Iowa State plays Kansas next week.

Unavailable Saturday Norton has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Kansas for an unspecified reason, Travis Hines of The Des Moines Register reports.

Impact Norton missed two games earlier in the year due to a leg injury, but it's not yet clear whether Saturday's absence is related to that issue. However, he didn't make the trip to Kansas, which should lead to slightly increased roles for Deon Silas and Eli Sanders out of the backfield.

Warming up Saturday Norton (leg) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Baylor, Travis Hines of The Des Moines Register reports.

Impact Coach Matt Campbell said this week that he expected Norton to be available for Saturday's matchup, and the running back's participation in pregame warmups suggests that will be the case against the Bears. Norton rushed three times for 21 yards during the Cyclones' season opener and should serve as the No. 2 backfield option behind starter Jirehl Brock.

Expected back Saturday Norton (leg) is expected to be available against Baylor, CycloneFantatic.com reports.
