Stats Study Expanded: A Three-Year Outlook on 25-Year-Old RBs Following 300 Touch Season

Related Topics: sports season

About a week ago, our very own Dave Bryan put together a very detailed and informative study on 25-year old running backs coming off a 300-touch season. This is of course important as it directly relates to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ very own star running back Le’Veon Bell. Bell, now 25 recorded 336 touches last season and as Dave noted in his study, the following season has not been favourable for 25-year old running backs following a 300-touch season.

According to history, the following season may not hold favorable odds for Bell but then again one season of play may be too small a sample size to hold against him.
