Vick Ballard has played just one game in the past two seasons due to knee and Achilles injuries. The games was Week 1 of 2013, which saw him run the ball 13 times for 63 yards. He was the likely top back being that Trent Richardson turned out to be a nightmare. In 2012, he rushed for 814 yards on 3.9 yards per carry. These numbers aren't mind blowing, however, he was running behind a horrendous offensive line and once again, drastically outperformed T-Rich. He's expected to return this season but will in all likelihood start the season on the PUP list and miss the first six weeks of the season.
