He's battled a slew of different injuries these past couple years. A lot of people were hoping he'd return to form (hence the trade of Hopkins for Johnson and a higher pick)
He hasn't looked himself in awhile, but he's definitely no bum either.
2016, which is like 1986 in NFL years and 1886 in NFL RB years. Lol
Dude's averaged 44.7 rushing yards per game at 3.7 YPC since then.
To give you an idea of how long ago in RB years that was... Jordan Howard, DeMarco Murray, and Jay Ajayi were 2nd, 3rd, and 4th in the NFL in rushing yards that year. 2 of those guys aren't even in the NFL anymore and 1 of them is floating on Practice Squads.
