Jets Training Camp Position Battle: Running Backs

There is no question the Jets running game will be better this year with Le’Veon Bell, but there are still many questions to be answered behind the Pro-Bowler. The projected starter for the Jets is obviously Bell, but the options for a backup are endless.

As for now, it’s safe to say that Ty Montgomery and Bilal Powell will be getting the second team reps at the start of camp. Following the backups are Elijah McGuire, Trenton Cannon, De’Angelo Henderson, and Valentine Holmes.

With the departure of Isaiah Crowell, and the additions of Bell and Montgomery the Jets running back room has become a lot more interesting.
