When the Washington Redskins want to get the offense going, it is usually a good idea to get running back Alfred Morris the ball.
It gets harder to do that when Morris is not on the field.
In Thursday’s 32-21 loss to the New York Giants, Morris played just 12 of the Redskins‘ 77 offensive snaps. Fellow running back Matt Jones, who shredded the St. Louis Rams for 123 yards in Week 2, was on the field for 26 of the offensive snaps.
