With OTAs wrapping up and training camp on the horizon, NFL rosters are largely set. However, a handful of veteran running backs are still looking for new homes.
A myriad of distinguished veterans signed new contracts this offseason, including former All-Pros and Pro Bowlers such as Saquon Barkley, Josh Jacobs, Derrick Henry and Austin Ekeler. Backfields around the league will look much different in 2024 than they did this past season.
Opportunities will inevitably arise for other free-agent running backs, though. Whether an injury in OTAs opens the door for an insurance option to compete or a team isn't feeling confident about its current platoon after witnessing some practice sessions, there's a good chance that some unsigned rushers will get a call before training camp begins.
