Impact Ragsdale is dealing with an undisclosed injury, an injury that will keep him out of Saturday's game. He led the Mean Green backfield in Week 1, but only gained six yards on nine touches in Week 2. Zach Evans and Damashja Harris are set for an increased workload versus the Big 12 opponent.
SEPTEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Solid in UNT debut Ragsdale had 14 carries for 45 yards and one touchdown and reeled in all three targets for 20 yards during Saturday's 52-38 victory over South Alabama.

While he was not particularly efficient, he still scored a touchdown and was utilized in the passing game. With the Mean Green's defense in rough shape too, the offense will have plenty of opportunities to be on the field which raises Ragsdale's upside.

AUGUST 6 • ROTOWIRE

Impact The North Texas backfield was crowded this year and featured a lot of shifting in roles. Given that a new head coach is arriving, things should definitely change on the roster front, and Ragsdale could be a part of that.
DECEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Finally makes a splash Ragsdale rushed 16 times for 119 yards and a touchdown against FAU on Saturday.
