Kay'Ron Lynch-Adams News, Rumors, Updates - Michigan State Spartans

Leading rusher in blowout loss Lynch-Adams logged nine carries for 69 yards and reeled in 1 of 2 targets for two yards during Saturday's 41-14 loss against Rutgers.

Impact Lynch-Adams was one of the lone bright spots on the day for the Michigan State offense, though a solid portion of his production came on the opening drive of the game in which the Spartans drove down the field and scored one of their two touchdowns on the day. The senior running back has been a contributor for the Spartans in the ground game, running for 649 yards and a pair of touchdowns through 12 games in a largely complementary role alongside Nathan Carter. With no eligibility remaining and the team remaining ineligible for postseason play, Lynch-Adams appears to have played his final game at the collegiate level and will have to decide whether to pursue a career at the professional level.

Leading rusher in victory Lynch-Adams tallied 18 carries for 85 yards and reeled in all three targets for 18 yards during Friday's 24-17 win over Purdue.

Impact Lynch-Adams led the team in rushing yards and attempts on the day, outpacing fellow running back Nathan Carter 18-9 in terms of carries. Though Carter accounted for a pair of scores, one on the ground and one through the air, Lynch-Adams was the more efficient of the two backs and helped move the ball throughout the day. The senior UMass transfer has had a decent season with the Spartans, running for 580 yards and a pair of touchdowns on the ground through 11 games while adding 14 catches for 83 yards through the air as well. The team's season finale against Rutgers will serve as Lynch-Adams' last opportunity to bolster his regular season statistics as the Spartans fight for bowl eligibility.

Quiet day in rivalry loss Lynch-Adams posted 10 rushes for 35 yards and gathered in their only target for negative five yards during Saturday's 24-17 loss against Michigan.

Impact Lynch-Adams had trouble finding running room on a day in which fellow running back Nathan Carter had a season-best performance, running for 118 yards and a touchdown on the day. Lynch-Adams has had a productive season on limited attempts, running for 459 yards and a pair of touchdowns on just 92 carries through eight games this season. The former UMass transfer will be hoping for a bounce back performance when the Spartans host undefeated Indiana this coming Saturday.

Productive outing in victory Lynch-Adams accrued 15 carries for 86 yards and caught all three targets for 17 yards during Saturday's 32-20 win versus Iowa.

Impact Lynch-Adams led the team in rushing attempts and yards on the day, managing a very respectable 5.7 YPC against the Iowa defense. Though fellow running back Nathan Carter looked better against the Hawkeyes (nine carries for 49 yards and a touchdown), Lynch-Adams appears to be the 1A option in a clear two-headed monster approach to the Michigan State backfield. The senior UMass transfer will likely continue to get opportunities moving forward, starting this Saturday in a rivalry matchup against a stingy Michigan defense.

Scores in defeat Lynch-Adams recorded nine rushes for 32 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 31-10 loss to Oregon.

Impact Lynch-Adams found the end zone on a one-yard plunge in the fourth quarter when the game was well in hand in favor of Oregon. The former UMass transfer outpaced fellow running back Nathan Carter in yards and attempts on the day, and though the two will likely continue to split touches moving forward, Lynch-Adams has clearly carved out a role for himself within the offense moving forward. The Spartans will hope to use Saturday's much-needed bye to rest up before the following week's battle against Iowa.

Moderate showing in blowout Lynch-Adams accrued 15 carries for 63 yards and hauled in all two targets for 27 yards during Saturday's 40-0 win over Prairie View A&M.

Impact Though he was outgained on the day by fellow running back Nathan Carter, Lych-Adams led the team in rushing attempts. Throughout the team's first three games, the senior running back has proven his credibility as a runner, earning more touches in each game thus far. A trip to Boston College will present a bigger challenge for Lynch-Adams and the Spartans this Saturday before conference play kicks into gear.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Electric debut in East Lansing Lynch-Adams totaled nine rushes for 101 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 16-10 victory versus Florida Atlantic.

Impact Lynch-Adams put together a fantastic debut for the Spartans after transferring from UMass in the offseason, averaging over 10 ypc on his way to crossing the century mark in his first game sporting the green and white. The only blemish on the day came when a touchdown run was wiped off the board due to a questionable forward progress stoppage, with quarterback Aidan Chiles taking it into the end zone himself the next play. Lynch-Adams will continue to split carries with Nathan Carter for the foreseeable future, but his performance on Friday will likely earn him plenty of opportunities moving forward.

Struggles in finale Lynch-Adams could not break out against the University of Connecticut in the season finale with only 51 rushing yards on 18 carries and two touchdowns in the Minutemen's 31-18 loss...

Impact Despite the relative down day against the University of Connecticut, it was a breakout season for the junior. Lynch-Adams finished with 1,157 rushing yards on 236 attempts and 12 touchdowns. He also added 20 catches for 118 yards.

DECEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Adds to his breakout season Lynch-Adams was impressive with 92 yards on 17 attempts and a touchdown in Massachusetts' 49-25 loss at undefeated Liberty on November 18.

Impact The junior running back has accumulated 1,106 rushing yards on 218 carries this season and 10 touchdowns. Lynch-Adams only collected 297 rushing yards in 2022 on 84 carries and one touchdown. He faces a middling Connecticut defense against the run in the last regular season game on Nov. 25.

NOVEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Surpasses a thousand yards Lynch-Adams ran 23 times for 88 yards in Massachusetts' 31-21 win over FCS opponent, Merrimack, on Nov. 4.

Impact With his day against Merrimack, the junior surpassed a thousand yards on the ground in a season for the first time in his career. In 2023 Lynch-Adams has 201 carries for 1,014 yards and nine touchdowns. The junior could have a tough time adding to his total in the Minutemen's next game, Nov. 18, at Liberty. The Flames defense is around the top 20 against the run in the country and has allowed only seven rushing touchdowns this season.

NOVEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Several touches equal few yards Lynch-Adams had another big game in terms of carries with 13 but for little yards, this time 31 in the 63-0 victory over Penn State on Saturday.

Impact The problem for the senior is not the chances but the room to run. Lynch-Adams also had 13 carries for just 41 yards against Arkansas State on Sept. 30. If the Minutemen give the senior the carries, he should be able to find room in the next contest, Oct 28 at Army. The Black Knights' rushing defense is near the bottom in country, allowing almost 176 yards on the ground per game.

Switching back to offense Adams will switch back to the offense, Greenfield Recorder reports.

Impact Adams played with the UMass defense in the spring, but he's now back "where I'm supposed to be," he said. He'll back up starting running back Ellis Merriweather in 2022.
