Dorian Thomas - Three receptions for 45 yards Thomas compiled three receptions (on six targets) for 45 yards during Saturday's 20-17 win over Colorado State.
Impact Despite zero touchdowns since Week 8, Thomas has proven to be one of college football's better tight ends in 2025. Since the aforementioned week, New Mexico's four-game span saw him log 14 receptions (on 19 targets) for 149 yards, 10.6 averaged per catch.
NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Keagan Johnson - Records 10 targets Johnson logged five receptions (on 10 targets) for 65 yards during Saturday's 20-17 win versus Colorado State.
Impact For the third time in 2025, Johnson logged double-digit targets. But unlike the first two games, he neither recorded a touchdown nor triple-digit yards. Only four more targets, and Johnson would tie a combined 83 targets he logged from 2023 to 2024 with Kansas State.
NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Damon Bankston - Serviceable during Week 12 Bankston logged nine rushes for 43 yards and caught all two targets for 16 yards during Saturday's 20-17 win over Colorado State.
Impact Among the Lobos' top running backs, Bankston is their most consistent option. Continually the team's RB2, he has benefited from said role to log 800 all-purpose yards and seven touchdowns. Statistically, moving from an FCS team to New Mexico has paid off for Bankston.
NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Jack Layne - Sufficient against Colorado State Layne was 13-for-25 passing for 226 yards during Saturday's 20-17 victory against Colorado State. He also had 10 rushes for 23 yards with one touchdown.
Impact Layne helped New Mexico scrape by arguably the Mountain West Conference's worst team this season. The quarterback has been relatively mistake-free since Week 8, with four games including a combined 4-1- TD-INT ratio and only one fumble, which he did not lose. For the Lobos' next game, they are scheduled to visit Air Force in Week 13.
NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
D.J. McKinney - Logs 50-plus yards two ways and TD McKinney had 17 carries for 52 yards and one touchdown and reeled in all two targets for 57 yards during Saturday's 20-17 victory versus Colorado State.
Impact For 2025, Saturday marked McKinney's best game since New Mexico upset Power Conference team UCLA during Week 3. By logging a season-high 57 receiving yards, he recorded at least 50 both behind the quarterback and out wide. Perhaps more importantly, McKinney's touchdown streak has improved to four games, which include five TDs.

Overall, Layne has completed 68.4 percent of his passes for 1,940 yards, 12 touchdowns and nine interceptions through nine games this season.

Dorian Thomas - Limited production in win Thomas gathered in 2 of 3 targets for 19 yards during Saturday's 33-14 win against Utah State.
Impact It was a quiet day for Thomas, who logged season lows in targets, receptions and receiving yards. It's worth noting that fellow tight end Cade Keith led the Lobos with seven receptions for 104 yards and a score. It'll be worth monitoring how New Mexico utilizes the two tight ends going forward. Overall, Thomas has 39 receptions for 423 yards and four touchdowns in eight games this season.
OCTOBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Keagan Johnson - Held in check Saturday Johnson accrued three receptions (on five targets) for 25 yards during Saturday's 33-14 win over Utah State.
