College Football 26 continues to deliver some of the most entertaining content drops in sports gaming, and this week we were treated to one of the most fun running backs to hit the game so far: Steve Slayton. While his reveal didn't generate the same hype as some of the bigger-name stars, Slayton is exactly the type of card that reminds everyone why CFB 26 can be so fun. Unique players, classic college legends, and electrifying abilities all wrapped into one shifty, highlight-producing package. Today we're diving into his stats, abilities, how he fits into the current meta, and why he might be the most underappreciated RB in CFB 26 right now. When Slayton dropped, he didn't get nearly the attention he deserved-but anyone who actually put him on the field immediately realized the truth: He's one of the most dynamic, slippery, explosive RBs in the entire game. At 5'9" and 200 pounds, Slayton is built like a classic videogame back-low center of gravity, excellent change of direction, and top-tier wiggle. His core ratings tell the full story: 95 Speed 96 Acceleration 95 Change of Direction 92 Carry 85 Short Route Running 79 Medium Route Running 71 Deep Route Running He's built to move. He's built to cut. He's built to embarrass defenders. With those COD and acceleration numbers, Slayton feels like a throwback to the Tavon Austin-style speed demon archetype-except with more power behind his animations. He hits the hole fast, explodes into the second level instantly, and once he has open field, it's almost impossible for safeties to angle him correctly. Ability Setup: Why Gold Shifty Turns Him Into a Cheat Code To make Slayton truly elite, we slapped Gold Shifty on him for 8 AP. And if you've ever used this ability, you already know why: Gold Shifty = ridiculous cuts, broken pursuit angles, and instant acceleration after direction changes. Paired with his natural COD rating, Slayton becomes almost impossible to square up. Defenders slide right past him. Users overcommit. CPU linebackers misread the angle every time. And once you hit the edge? Forget it-he's gone. This is the type of RB that makes people slam their controller down and say, "How did he get past that?"
Final Thoughts: One of the Best RB Drops All Year After hours of gameplay and testing, the conclusion is clear: Steve Slayton is one of the best, most fun, most dynamic running backs in CFB 26 right now. He's explosive His COD is insane His abilities make him a human joystick He fits multiple schemes His gameplay animations feel premium And perhaps best of all-he's not overpriced. Sitting around 800k, he's a great value for a card that plays like a top-tier RB1. If you love shifty backs, explosive playmakers, and offensive gameplay that feels fluid and fun, this is absolutely a card worth picking up. This might genuinely be one of the best Star of the Week drops we've seen so far.
