6 years agoMiami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake got three carries and picked up 16 yards in the Dolphins' 26-24 preseason loss to the Buccaneers. Drake only played the opening series before being lifted. It's common for starters to only play one or two series in early preseason games, so it's nice to see Drake get the starter treatment. Frank Gore didn't play in this game, so this game unfortunately doesn't offer too much insight into that positional battle. Drake has youth and vitality on his side, as well as better recent history in the league and familiarity with the coaching staff. If given the majority of work in Miami Drake could be destined for a breakout.--Elliott Baas - RotoBaller
