Well, it wasn’t exactly what you would call ‘taking the NFL by storm’. That’s for sure. Second-year Tennessee Titans running back Darrynton Evans was on the field for 33 offensive snaps and another 34 on special teams during 2020’s regular season. For you math experts, that equates to three percent and eight percent of the team’s total number of snaps in each category.
How can this be put nicely? That isn’t really what you’re looking for when your team has a workhorse back, Derrick Henry, that ran for over 2,000 yards in his fifth season and has carried the ball more than 300 times in each of the past two seasons.
