FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- In Matt Forte's mind, it's pretty simple: If you have a good pass-catcher, you make sure he gets opportunities to catch the ball.
That didn't happen for him last season, which he found puzzling. You can't question his receiving skills. Forte has more receptions than any running back in the NFL over the last five seasons (294), and yet he was an afterthought in the New York Jets' passing attack in 2016: a career-low 30 catches.
