Chase Edmonds was gearing up for his fourth season in the NFL when asked who may be the starting running back in Arizona, considering the team added former Pittsburgh Steeler James Conner.
“I hate the term RB1,” Edmonds said nearly 11 months ago.
Edmonds registered a career-high of 903 yards from scrimmage in just 12 games last season while Conner found the end zone for an eye-popping 18 touchdowns.
Since then, Edmonds has traded in his Cardinals red for aqua and orange, but it’s hard to imagine his thoughts on a true “lead” running back have changed.
