Gio thrives more as a change of pace back, but even last year had a down year (didn't hit holes like he would his rookie season or college years).
It wouldn't surprise me at all if Gio has over 1,000 yards from scrimmage. I mean, he's done it the past two seasons.
Only thing is I don't really see Rex getting those types of numbers. I get there's hype around him, but the guy is behind Hill and Gio, one of the best and youngest RB duos in the NFL. It's hard to get him in the game when those two are taking the load off of another in rotations.
I think this was due to using more zone concepts with Jeremy, Gio wasn't nearly as successful in them.
As for Rex, he'll likely have more catches than rushes this year, we'll use him in the slot and out of the backfield. He'll basically be a RB playing WR.
