Slows down in Saturday's loss Tabb logged six carries for 19 yards and gathered in 4 of 8 targets for 40 yards during Saturday's 34-7 loss against Arizona.

Impact Tabb, who scored three touchdowns in each of the last two games, was held in check Saturday. He only had six rushing attempts, but the early deficit forced the Bearcats into more passing situations. Tabb took advantage of that, commanding eight targets and catching four of them, but it was still a somewhat disappointing performance following his breakout. He'll look to get back on track after the bye week at West Virginia.

Scores three TDs again Tabb posted 11 rushes for 124 yards and three touchdowns during Saturday's 31-26 win versus Kansas State.

Impact Coming off a three-touchdown performance in last Saturday's comeback win, Tabb scored another hat trick versus Kansas State. He scored on runs of five yards, 30 yards, and 14 yards, all in the second half, and he now has seven touchdowns over his last three games. While he is still receiving less work than the productive Gi'Bran Payne, Tabb's knack for big plays and the endzone is far more than just a fluke at this point.

Three TDs in comeback win Tabb totaled six carries for 78 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in all four targets for 43 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 35-31 victory versus Miami (OH).

Impact After falling into a big deficit in the first half, Tabb saw an uptick in playing time in the second half as the Bearcats chased the game. He caught an eight-yard touchdown in the third quarter to cut the lead to 28-21, then with the team down three with less than two minutes left, broke away from the defense on third down to score a 53-yard game-winning touchdown. It was a breakout performance for the Stanford transfer, and one that may earn him more touches as the team heads into conference play.

Scores in Saturday's win Tabb accrued five carries for 72 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 62-10 victory over Western Carolina.

Impact Tabb scored a 36-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter Saturday, his first of the young season. He now has 11 carries for 109 yards through two games this season, seemingly establishing a decent role in the offense for himself. It's a bit too early to tell though, as four Bearcats' running backs have had five carries in each of the team's first two games. That number will likely shrink once the team starts playing better opponents.

Signs with Cincinnati Tabb has signed with Cincinnati, Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com reports.

Impact Tabb entered the transfer portal after two seasons with Stanford. In 2025, working behind Micah Ford, Tabb carried the ball 114 times for 445 yards and three touchdowns. He's likely to compete for a featured role with the Bearcats. Tabb has three years of eligibility remaining.

To enter portal Tabb plans to enter the transfer portal, On3 Sports reports.

Impact Tabb will have three years of eligibility remaining. The tailback worked behind Micah Ford in 2025, compiling 114 carries for 445 yards and three touchdowns across 11 games. In three appearances during 2024, he rushed 27 times for 130 yards.

DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet in lead role Tabb notched 11 rushes for 32 yards and reeled in their only target for two yards during Saturday's 49-20 loss to Notre Dame.

Impact With Micah Ford (undisclosed) sidelined, Tabb assumed No. 1 RB duties for the Cardinal. However, he failed to do much with the expanded opportunities, finishing fewer than three yards per carry. The redshirt freshman will end 2025 with 114 carries for 445 yards and three touchdowns. With Ford, who also just finished up his second collegiate season, ahead of him on the depth and a new HC taking over the program, Tabb could be at risk of transferring.

DECEMBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet on 19 carries Tabb posted 19 carries for 64 yards during Saturday's 42-7 defeat to Miami (FL).

Impact Tabb served as Stanford's top running back Saturday due to the absence of Micah Ford (leg). Tabb, along with the rest of the Cardinal offense, struggled to gain consistent yardage. The tailback has handled 47 carries across his last two games and should continue to see a massive workload while Ford and Tuna Altahir (undisclosed) are sidelined.

OCTOBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to available Tabb (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's game against Miami.

Impact Tabb is no longer on the injury report, meaning he'll have the chance to build off his Week 8 performance when he rushed for 118 yards on 28 carries in a win over the Seminoles. With Micah Ford (undisclosed) and Tuna Altahir (undisclosed) both ruled out, Tabb is set to have a big workload once again in Week 9.

OCTOBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Probable for Saturday Tabb (undisclosed) is probable for Saturday's game at Miami, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Tabb, who is coming off his best performance of the season in a win over Florida State, is considered probable for Saturday's contest. With Micah Ford (undisclosed) and Tuna Altahir (undisclosed) both ruled out, Tabb is set to have a big workload once again if he can play versus a strong Miami team.

OCTOBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Huge workload in relief of Ford Tabb notched 28 carries for 118 yards and one touchdown and hauled in 0 of 2 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 20-13 victory versus Florida State.

Impact Tabb was thrust into a featured role early in the contest, as starting RB Micah Ford (leg) and starting QB Ben Gulbranson (knee) went down with injuries. It resulted in a ridiculous 28-carry game for Tabb, which shattered his previous high of 12 carries. He topped 100 yards for the first time in his career. Third-string RB Tuna Altahir (undisclosed) was also out. If Ford and Altahir continue to miss time, expect Tabb to see plenty of touches, though Sedrick Irvin could see a few more carries.

Suiting up vs. Seminoles Tabb (undisclosed) is no longer on the injury report and will be available for Saturday's game against FSU.

Impact Tabb should continue to fill a depth role in the Cardinal's backfield, but he's not going to have a significant role in fantasy now that he's active. Tabb has 21 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown over his last two games.

OCTOBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as probable Tabb is probable for Saturday's game against Florida State.

Impact Tabb seems to be dealing with a minor injury ahead of Saturday's game. He's been quite efficient lately, totaling 21 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown over his last two games. Assuming he's active, Tabb figures to play a complementary role in the backfield alongside Micah Ford,

OCTOBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Steps into primary role Tabb totaled 12 carries for 48 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 30-29 win versus San Jose State.

Impact Tabb has worked behind Micah Ford this season, but he outcarried Ford 12 to seven in Week 5 and was significantly more effective with his opportunities. The redshirt freshman scored his first touchdown of the campaign, taking a first-quarter rush into the endzone from eight yards out. Tabb has rushed 30 times for 132 yards in four games this season.

Operates in reserve role Tabb logged four carries for 26 yards and gathered in all two targets for eight yards during Saturday's 23-20 loss against Hawaii.

Impact Tabb served as the No. 3 back in Stanford's season opener, working behind Micah Ford and Sedrick Irvin. While Irvin outtouched Tabb 10-6, Tabb's passing-game usage is encouraging as he could carve out a larger third-down role later in the season. Still, he shouldn't be in fantasy consideration when Ford and Irvin are healthy.
