Maryland Terrapins Bolster Rushing Attack with Terrez Worthy

Salisbury native brings JuCo explosiveness and seasoned maturity to College Park

Maryland’s football program has announced the addition of Terrez Worthy, a former Temple running back whose career has been marked by explosive runs and a relentless work ethic.

A JuCo standout with big‑play pedigree

Worthy arrives after two seasons at Temple and a standout year at Lackawanna College, where he topped all junior‑college rushers with 1,492 yards and ten touchdowns. His breakout performances include a 75‑yard touchdown sprint against Tulane, the longest run of his college career, and a 95‑yard effort on 12 carries versus UConn that earned him national watch‑list nods.

Beyond the numbers, Worthy is a father of four, balancing the demands of family life with the grind of college football, a maturity that coaches say adds a steadying presence to the backfield.

Family man and community roots

Rooted in Salisbury and a former MVP of Maryland’s Big 33 team, Worthy brings a local connection that resonates with fans eager to see home‑grown talent excel at the highest level.

The Terrapins will see him compete for snaps alongside a group of experienced backs, a competition that could reshape the team’s rushing identity and inject fresh energy into the offense.
