Added to injury report Battle (undisclosed) is listed as questionable for Week 13 against Houston.

Impact Battle is now a question mark to face the Cougars after popping up on the injury report Wednesday night.

Adds TD in third straight game Battle had five carries for three yards and one touchdown and hauled in 2 of 3 targets for eight yards during Saturday's 20-17 defeat versus Iowa State.

Impact Battle added a touchdown in his third straight game. He's become the goal-line back as Kevorian Barnes has handled the volume out of the backfield. Both Battle and Barnes struggled against the Cyclones while teammate Jeremy Payne was successful with 71 yards on eight carries.

Starting vs. Iowa State Battle is starting at running back Saturday against Iowa State, per Steven Johnson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Impact Battle looks poised for a big role Saturday after logging 89 yards and a touchdown on a season-high 19 carries against West Virginia last week, after Kevorian Barnes left with an injury. Overall, Battle is averaging 6.2 yards per carry for 323 yards overall and five touchdowns in eight games this year.

Logs 23 touches in win Battle notched 19 rushes for 89 yards and one touchdown and reeled in all four targets for 15 yards during Saturday's 23-17 victory against West Virginia.

Impact Battle was thrust into action after Kevorian Barnes left the game with an injury. While Barnes did return later, Battle stepped up and had his best game of the year. Not only did he add his fifth touchdown of the season, but he was also a legitimate option in the passing game with a career-high four catches. TCU is on a bye next week; however, this strong performance could lead to Battle receiving more touches when the team plays Iowa State in Week 11.

Misses scrimmage Battle (undisclosed) missed the Horned Frogs' latest scrimmage Sunday, Jeremy Clark of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact It is unclear why Battle missed the Horned Frogs' latest scrimmage, but his continued absence would allow their other running backs to step up. 2024 has been his best collegiate year, so he would not want to miss out when they play at North Carolina on Sept. 1.

First collegiate TDs in win Battle notched six carries for 28 yards and two touchdowns and caught both of his targets for 13 yards during Saturday's 49-28 win over Arizona.

Ineffective against Texas Tech Battle had seven rushes for 10 yards during Saturday's 35-34 victory against Texas Tech.

Impact Battle received the most carries at the running back position, however, was not very effective against the Red Raiders. It was actually WR Savion Williams who was the most effective out of the backfield in the wildcat formation. This is a trend to watch because TCU is cycling through different gameplans at the running back position. TCU will play Baylor next week.

Close to becoming RB1 Battle is close to securing the starting running back spot for TCU, Sarah Smith of Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Battle has only been truly involved in one game this season with an inactive status for the first five weeks. This past week against Utah, the junior running back logged eight rushes for 45 yards and two catches for 19 yards, but he could be edging closer to becoming the lead rusher for the Horned Frogs. This likely means he'll be competing to take over main backfield duties from running back Cam Cook this Saturday against Texas Tech, but the actual game should provide a better indication on if Battle is the ball carrier the team is looking to rock with moving on.

OCTOBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

10 touches at Utah Battle recorded eight carries for 45 yards and hauled in two targets for 19 yards during Saturday's 13-7 victory over Utah.

Impact Battle recorded a career-high 10 touches at Utah as TCU looked to manufacture some offensive production. It will be interesting to see if Battle is more involved as the season progresses. TCU will play Texas Tech next week.
