Running Backs

  • Matt Breida
  • Tevin Coleman
  • Raheem Mostert
  • Kyle Juszczyk

With Jerrick McKinnon nursing a knee injury from last season, the explosive duo of Breida and Coleman have taken over as the feature backs. McKinnon now has an uphill battle to make the roster. Mostert has had an impressive training camp and preseason to likely make the team. Juszczyk is the highest-paid fullback in the league and one of the best at the position.
