We have been talking a lot about James Conner over the course of the past couple of weeks, and for good reason. It’s a big season for him, for one thing, heading into his second season. Even for a position like running back, where many players are able to make a big impact immediately, you still expect that jump in year two.
He was also coming off an MCL tear, so to see him not just on the field but in great shape is big. To see how motivated he is, to see his drive while he is working on the field, is big.
