As much as I don't think Bernard would come back, he really does have the skill set we want to replace Perine.
His career in TB never got off the ground, and he's 31 years old, so it'd truly be a one-year stopgap kinda contract if he were to play anywhere.

Fournette is probably who I would choose otherwise though.

Gio Bernard announced his retirement on April 28th.
