Brandon Alex Barnes (born October 27, 1996) is a former American football running back. He played college football at Kansas State University.

Early years

Barnes attended Pittsburg High School in Pittsburg, Kansas. As a senior at Pittsburg in 2014, he rushed for 2,361 yards and 38 touchdowns.[1] He committed to play college football at Kansas State University, choosing them over the University of Minnesota, University of Kansas, and Rutgers University.[2]

College career

Barnes redshirted as a freshman at Kansas State in 2015.

As a redshirt freshman in 2016, Barnes broke out and rushed for 442 yards and six touchdowns on 56 carries in 11 games.[3]

Barnes' break out continued as a redshirt sophomore in 2017. He started all 13 of Kansas State's games and rushed for 819 yards and seven touchdowns on 146 carries[4] along with catching five passes for 29 yards and throwing a touchdown pass. However, Barnes suffered ankle pain throughout the season which limited his workload.[5]

In 2018, as a redshirt junior, Barnes was the Big 12 Conference's leading rusher with 1,355 yards with 12 touchdowns on 256 carries in 12 games.[6] He was named to the All-Big 12 football team.[7] After the season, Barnes decided to forego his senior year to pursue a career in the NFL.[8]
