Impact The junior will get his share of carries with Dylan Riley getting most of the time based on the current depth chart. In the Ducks Boise State faced what is expected to be their toughest defense this season so Gaines will get plenty of value against weak defenses the rest of the season. Gaines will look to show improvement on the ground against Memphis on Sept. 12. The Tigers have allowed an average of 180 rushing yards in their first two games, both victories.

Splitting RB1 reps with Riley Gaines will split the RB1 reps at Boise State's spring practice with Dylan Riley, per Shaun Goodwin of the Idaho Statesman.

Impact Gaines amassed 883 total yards last season as Boise State's RB2 behind Dylan Riley, who ran for a 1,125 yards as the top ball-carrier for the Broncos. This is a two-headed monster in Boise State's backfield, and both ball-carriers will have a chance to take starting reps this spring. Both halfbacks should be staples of this offense come fall.

Completely bottled up by Huskies Gaines compiled eight carries for 16 yards and hauled in their only target for five yards during Saturday's 38-10 defeat against Washington.

Impact Gaines had a very solid year for the Broncos, and entered the LA bowl against Washington with 795 rushing yards and eight scores. However, the Huskies completely shut him down, and the entire Boise State ground game in general -- the Broncos' leading rusher was Dylan Riley with 34 yards. Still, with three years of eligibility remaining and coming off a season in which he neared 900 all-purpose yards, Gaines' future is bright.

Reaches paydirt in MWC Championship Gaines had nine rushes for 64 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 38-21 Mountain West Championship win over UNLV.

Impact Gaines handled just nine carries compared to Dylan Riley's 21, but he made the most of his totes and finished with just 11 fewer yards on the ground, in addition to one rushing score to Riley's zero. Riley did reach the end zone with a catch out of the backfield, and Gaines looks to be settled into the No. 2 role in Boise State's backfield. He'll have another opportunity to rack up some yardage in the Broncos' bowl game before calling it a season.

Sees 10 carries in win Gaines posted 10 carries for 31 yards during Friday's 25-24 victory against Utah State.

Impact Gaines came back to earth Friday after exploding for 149 yards with two touchdowns last week against Colorado State. It was an up-and-down regular season for the redshirt freshman, who will head into the conference championship game with 732 yards and seven touchdowns on 144 carries.

Erupts vs. Rams Gaines tallied 22 rushes for 149 yards and two touchdowns and caught their only target for 12 yards during Saturday's 49-21 win over Colorado State.

Impact Gaines had his biggest day yet in 2025, eclipsing 100 yards for the first time while logging his third multi-touchdown performance. Boise State got to run the ball plenty as it dismantled Colorado State, meaning fellow tailbacks Malik Sherrod and Dylan Riley also got to gobble up yards and touchdowns. The Broncos, working with a backup quarterback for the third straight game, were finally able to lean on their rushing attack and let that carry them to victory. They'll look to continue that in Week 14 against Utah State.

Solid effort against Aztecs Gaines accrued 13 carries for 78 yards during Saturday's 17-7 defeat to San Diego State.

Impact Gaines hasn't reached pay dirt in either of the last two contests, which is a little disappointing, but he did see an uptick in carries Saturday, albeit while logging fewer totes than sophomore back Dylan Riley. Gaines should remain a regular in the Broncos' backfield over the last two regular-season contests, but he's not exactly a workhorse back.

Held in check Saturday Gaines compiled seven carries for 39 yards and caught his only target for negative two yards during Saturday's 30-7 loss against Fresno State.

Impact It was a quiet day for the Broncos' offense overall, as Gaines was held out of the end zone after scoring five touchdowns in his previous three games. However, Boise State could be forced to lean more on its running game down the stretch with quarterback Maddux Madsen (ankle) likely sidelined for a while. Through nine games, Gaines has rushed for 474 yards on 99 carries with six total touchdowns.
