Isaiah Crowell looking to prove he can be every-down back

Last year, carries were shared between veterans Bilal Powell, who was handed the ball 178 times, and Matt Forte, who received 103 attempts on the ground, with Powell often being looked at as the No. 1 guy. Rookie Elijah McGuire, however, also showed promise, totaling 381 yards on 88 attempts.

Heading into next season, however, the running back corps looks vastly different for the Jets. Powell and McGuire remain, but Forte has retired. In free agency, the team signed Isaiah Crowell and Thomas Rawls while also drafting Trenton Cannon.
