The Titans made a home run addition to the backfield when they signed former New England Patriot Dion Lewis to a four-year, $20 million contract. Lewis’ quick, nimble style of running and receiving helps provide a change of pace back from the more traditional, powerful Derrick Henry. The hope is that this new backfield will take a big step forward under new offensive coordinator Matt LaFleur.
The only question is, how many running back duos are better than the combination of Henry and Lewis?
In today’s NFL, more teams are stocking up in the backfield to get a multiple set of backs that bring explosiveness to the offense in different ways.
