JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Jaguars signed running back Alfred Blue on Monday, adding a productive veteran as more insurance in case Leonard Fournette is not able to rebound from a disappointing 2018 season.
Blue, who turns 28 later this month, rushed for 2,407 yards and eight touchdowns in five seasons with the Houston Texans. He started 16 of the 72 games in which he played and his best season came in 2015, when he ran for a team-high 698 yards and two touchdowns and started nine games. Blue played as Lamar Miller's backup the past three seasons.
