Jaguars position preview: Running backs

New Jaguars running backs coach Kelly Skipper has two big questions to answer when training camp begins July 31.

“Do we have a lead guy and we can complement him, or will we have to share the load?” he said.

Ideally for the Jaguars, rookie T.J. Yeldon will establish himself as the lead guy, followed by Denard Robinson, Toby Gerhart and others.

Only so much can be assessed during the offseason workouts (no pads), especially at running back. But the Jaguars left for summer vacation pleased with Yeldon.

“The impressive thing about T.J. is that he picked up the offense quickly,” Skipper said.
