Running back Rueben Owens is preparing for his junior season after recovering from a lower leg injury that sidelined him for most of the previous year.

Texas A&M running back Rueben Owens is gearing up for his junior season after recovering from a lower leg injury that kept him off the field for most of the 2024 season. Owens, who had been one of the Aggies’ top offensive weapons in his earlier seasons, faced a significant setback last year when he was forced to miss the majority of the games. However, following months of intensive rehab and training, Owens is fully recovered and ready to make an impact in the 2025 season.

The injury not only affected Owens’ ability to contribute on the field but also took a toll on his development. Despite limited play, he made a brief return in late November, appearing in the Texas game and the Las Vegas Bowl against USC, though it was clear he wasn’t yet back to full strength. Now, with a clean bill of health, Owens is set to return to form and bring his explosive style of running back to the Aggies’ offense alongside teammates Le’Veon Moss and Amari Daniels.

The 2025 season holds high expectations for Owens, who has demonstrated the ability to break big plays and be a dual-threat in the backfield. With his speed and agility, Owens is expected to be a key component in Texas A&M’s rushing attack, and his return could be the spark the Aggies need to contend in the SEC. Fans are eager to see Owens back at full capacity, as he looks to build on his previous success and lead the Aggies to a successful season.
