I think he is almost washed now but will be interesting to see what he does next.

Feel like his role became a short range/ red zone back as he declined nd Tony Pollard took his spot.

If the price was super cheap i'd consider him as a backup/change physical alternative to pair with Ken Walker but I can't see him taking a massive pay cut.

Loved him in his prime but I think he is a big example along with Fournette as to why you shouldn't pay a RB big money long term. Both are 27 and feel ancient. Both were used a ton in college as well. Does make me wonder how long Derrick Henry has left in his prime who was also used a lot in college.

Zeek makes perfect sense here.

Veteran RB to spell Walker, and we know Pete and John love bringing in vets with a chip on their shoulder desperately trying to get another contract.

Elliot has lost some juice the past couple of years, but for splitting time with Walker every 4th or 5th series? Makes sense.

Yeah, fake story, I guess. Besides, P&J are more likely to go young at RB anyway.

Meh, I'd take him on a major discount.
