Giovani Bernard Could Bring Value In Passing Game
3 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers running back Giovani Bernard is not expected to be the workhorse back for the team in 2021. Those duties will go to the tandem of Leonard Fournette and Ronald Jones II. Despite being considered the RB3 on the team now, Bernard could bring value as a pass-catching back for Tom Brady this season. Brady famously loved throwing to pass-catching backs in New England such as James White and Bernard certainly brings that ability. The former Bengal recorded 342 receptions for 2,867 yards and 11 touchdowns on 457 targets in eight years in Cincy. It will be worth monitoring how much playing time Bernard gets before deeming him a worthy pickup in fantasy.
