Jaguars plan on sticking with committee backfield in 2017

The Jacksonville Jaguars will utilize a running back committee again next season, believes ESPN's Matthew Berry after meeting with team coaches and front office members at the NFL Combine.

What It Means:

General manager Dave Caldwell anticipates Chris Ivory being the "1" to T.J. Yeldon's "1A" in Jacksonville's running game, while one front-office member spoke particularly highly about Corey Grant after his breakout Week 17 performance. The Jaguars' backfield is going to be a source of plenty of frustration for fantasy owners again next season.

Among the 42 running backs with at least 100 carries last season, Yeldon (130 attempts) finished eighth-worst in Rushing Net Expected Points per attempt. Ivory was dead-last (117 attempts).
