Mike Pettine to use rotation at running back in camp
Cleveland Browns head coach Mike Pettine indicated that he'll be using a "healthy rotation" at running back, according to beat writer Nate Ulrich.
Terrance West actually took the first 11-on-11 reps, followed by Isaiah Crowell, who struggled with fumbling and handoffs from new quarterback Josh McCown on day one. This is likely going to be an unsolvable fantasy football nightmare, especially with Duke Johnson also in the mix.
The Browns were the sixth-most run-heavy team in the NFL last year, and no team ran the ball at a higher rate inside the red zone than Cleveland did. However, they ranked just 31st in rushing efficiency, according to our schedule-adjusted Rushing Net Expected Points per play metric, which compares a team to expectation-level performance.
