Former Youngstown State standout running back Jaleel McLaughlin is drawing raves from his NFL team.

McLaughlin, who signed with the Denver Broncos, was praised Monday by new head coach Sean Payton.

“He’s a guy you root for,” Payton said during a press conference. “He’s got a little burst and toughness to him. He’s shifty and has a good change of direction.

The coach said McLaughlin is the first running back in the building each day, adding he comes in at 5 a.m. daily.
