Early years and college career edit

Warren was a high school All-American running back, attending the University of Texas. There he set their single-game freshman rushing record with 276 yards and four touchdowns against Texas Tech University late in 2015.[2] In 2017 he was moved to tight end. Going in to the combine he told teams he would do whatever they needed him to, but that he fully intended to play running back in the NFL.
