Well, I did say IMO (In My Opinion).
But yeah, it's not really realistic for a RB to drop 15 lbs and convert to a new position IMO. Not only that, but to actually do is successfully enough to start.
How many successful examples of this happening can you think of? A RB to WR conversion?

Not surprising really.

Bingo. Rex is just the latest popular seldom-used white guy on the team. Decent backup RB though.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
