Duane Thomas Jr. - Solid in season finale Thomas tallied four receptions (on five targets) for 74 yards during Saturday's 41-21 loss to Brigham Young.

Impact Thomas finished the season strong, setting a season-high in yards from scrimmage with 91. He had a season-high four carries in the game and attempted a pass -- which resulted in an interception -- as the Knights showed a clear effort to get the ball in his hands in multiple ways. Thomas finished the season with 53 catches for 528 yards and did not find the end zone once despite that volume. He figures to play an important role in the offense again next season should he return to UCF.

Myles Montgomery - Unproductive in season finale Montgomery posted seven rushes for 29 yards and gathered in 2 of 3 targets for 11 yards during Saturday's 41-21 loss to Brigham Young.

Impact Montgomery finished his senior season with a modest performance, totaling 40 yards in the loss to BYU. The Knights quickly abandoned the run which didn't allow Montgomery or any UCF back to get going. He finished the 2025 campaign with 705 rushing yards and four touchdowns, adding 17 catches for 182 yards in what was easily the most productive season of his career.

NOVEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Jaden Nixon - Quiet outing in season finale Nixon accrued three rushes for nine yards and reeled in 1 of 2 targets for three yards during Saturday's 41-21 defeat to Brigham Young.

Impact Nixon had a disappointing finish to his collegiate career Saturday, gaining only 12 yards on four touches in the loss to BYU. It was an up and down season for Nixon as he oscillated between elite performances and irrelevant outings. He finished the campaign with 554 rushing yards and seven touchdowns, adding 88 receiving yards and one return touchdown. The journeyman's collegiate career has now come to an end after stints at Oklahoma State, Western Michigan and Central Florida.

NOVEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Tayven Jackson - Productive in season finale Jackson completed 21 of 37 passes for 232 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 41-21 defeat against Brigham Young.

Impact Jackson finished the 2025 season strong, accounting for three touchdowns in the loss to BYU. He helped lead the Knights to an early 14-0 lead as he caught a four-yard touchdown pass from Dylan Wade and then tossed a touchdown to Agyeman Addae in the first quarter. It was his first game without a turnover since Week 4, but it was not quite enough to earn the team a win and bowl eligibility. His season comes to an end, and he finished the campaign with modest production. He threw for 2,151 yards, 10 touchdowns and eight interceptions, adding 85 yards and three touchdowns on the ground. With one year of eligibility remaining, it's currently unclear what Jackson's next step will be.
