And at the end of the day, yards from scrimmage is all that matters.
Ekeler and Kamara are probably the biggest guys that split.
Ekeler's never had 1000 rushing yards, but he's always had over 900 yards from scrimmage every season since 2018.
Kamara is in the same boat.
Yeah, Ekeler is a sneaky good RB. People tend to not account for a backs receiving yards, similar to how they discount a QBs rushing yardage. If you argue for Ekeler being a top RB, a lot of people will reject it until they find out he averaged 5.6 yards a touch with 1500+ total yards and 20 TDs last season. Dude is a monster, one of my favorite players in the league and I am not typically a fan of RBs.
