During the 2025 Bearcats' season, Pryor averaged 10.7 yards per reception. The running back also logged 76 rushing attempts for 522 yards, 6.9 per carry.

Out for Week 10 Pryor (ankle) is out for Saturday's game at Utah, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Considering that Pryor was doubtful barely 24 hours before the Thamel update, the running back out for Week 10 is unsurprising. On the plus side, there is hope that he can return after Cincinnati's bye week, when UC and Arizona log their yearly conference matchup in Week 12. Coming off an ankle injury, he will watch as the Bearcats try to steal a win at Utah, likely with Tawee Walker leading their running back room.

Heads to locker room Pryor is going to the locker room with an apparent left foot injury, Keegan Nickoson of BearcatJournal.com reports.

Impact Pryor came up hobbling following a run and was unable to put any weight on his left foot. He spent some time in the medical tent before eventually heading back to the locker room. His return to Saturday's game seems unlikely given the fact time is running out in the fourth quarter. More on his official injury news should come to light after the game or next week.

Good to go vs. UCF Pryor (undisclosed) is no longer listed on Cincinnati's injury report ahead of the Bearcats' game against UCF on Saturday.

Impact Pryor was listed as probable earlier in the week, and now the tailback's name is nowhere to be found on the injury report, indicating he's a go for Week 7. The senior is coming off his best game of the season, an 111-yard, two-touchdown effort in the win over Iowa State.

OCTOBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Probable Week 7 Pryor (undisclosed) has popped up on Cincinatti's initial injury report ahead of Saturday's game against UCF.

Impact Pryor has been listed as probable on Cincinatti's Wednesday injury report after putting together his best outing of the season against Iowa State last week. The 5-foot-9 senior, who has logged 16 attempts for 201 yards and two touchdowns across the last two weeks, is expected to play, but his status at practice through the remainder of the week is worth keeping tabs on.

Scores twice in Saturday's win Pryor accrued 10 carries for 111 yards and two touchdowns and reeled in 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 38-30 win against Iowa State.

Impact Pryor scored his first two touchdowns of the season Saturday, a run of 30 yards in the first quarter and 18 yards in the second quarter. He once again was out carried by Tawee Walker, but he out-rushed him by 22 yards and scored twice while Walker did not score. He has increased his rushing output in every game this season and has established himself as more than just a backup to Walker.

95 yards at Kansas Pryor notched six rushes for 90 yards and reeled in 1 of 2 targets for five yards during Saturday's 37-34 win against Kansas.

Impact Pryor had exactly six carries in his third consecutive game, but this time he gained 90 yards thanks in part to a 46-yard scamper. He's looked good behind Tawee Walker, but his value still remains fairly low since he doesn't have a huge role in the Bearcats' offense.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Five carries for 29 yards Pryor (lower body) posted five carries for 29 yards and caught 1 of 2 targets for five yards during Thursday's 20-17 defeat versus Nebraska.

Impact Pryor logged Cincinnati's second-most carries, behind Tawee Walker. They suggest that Pryor is Cincinnati's second-choice running back, though there is at least a slight possibility that his previous lower-body injury prevented him from maximizing carries. Obviously, Pryor's future number of rushing attempts will determine his standing among Cincinnati running backs, and he got off to a great start Thursday despite being in one of the few Power Conference teams to begin their 2025 season against another P4 side.
