7 years agoChicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy believes that running back Jordan Howard can be an every-down back in his offense. "There’s this notion that he is just a first-and second-down back, and I don’t believe that,” Nagy said Saturday. “Jordan can play all three downs. We’re going to do that. We’re going to use him, and we’re going to use other guys on first and second down when we need to." Howard has reached the 1,000-yard mark in each of his first two seasons. That's no small feat, but he's expected to lose a lot of work to the versatile Tarik Cohen in 2018. Howard has been working to improve his pass catching this offseason and could improve in that area. He's more of a low-end RB1/high-end RB2 heading into his third year.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
