Scouting Report

Assets
  • Brings a rare mix of vision, patience, cutback ability, and receiving skills to the tailback position. Sees openings in the defense very well and exploits them. Has excellent size, which helps him as a receiver and running the ball inside.
Flaws
  • Runs a bit tall at times and isn't explosively fast in the open field. Can get a little bit predictable when the offense isn't running pass options for him.
Career Potential
  • Star tailback.
  • AwardsNFL - Named to play in Pro Bowl
