Vaughn carried the ball six times for 37 yards, giving him an average of 6.2 yards per carry on the day.<\/p>\n<p>While Vaughn lit it up for the Cowboys in the 2023 NFL Preseason, he has seen just 40 carries for 110 yards and 10 grabs for 58 yards in his NFL career.<\/p>\n<p>While at Kansas State, Vaughn chased former Wildcat Darren Sproles\u2019 records and had some success running down the NFL great. Sproles finished his career as the Wildcats\u2019 all-time leading rusher (4979, in four seasons), a record that he still holds, followed closely by Vaughn, with 3,604 yards in three years.<\/p>\n<p>Vaughn enters the NFL offseason in an interesting situation as the Dallas Cowboys have the option to move on from head coach Mike McCarthy and seek the second head coach of Vaughn\u2019s NFL career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former NFL RB Darren Sproles says that Cowboys RB Deuce Vaughn is the player who currently reminds him of himself. \u201cThey [Dallas] have to play Deuce Vaughn&#8230;. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":25085,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25084","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>REVEALS!!!
