Five games into the season and last year’s rookie stud runner Najee Harris, who’s fresh off a 1,200-yard franchise rookie record campaign, is off to a slow start, averaging only 3.2 YPC, which is down even from last year’s substandard 3.9. Whether that can be attributed to a lingering Lisfranc injury he suffered in training camp, or the continued woes of the offensive line remains to be seen. However, the performance of his backup, undrafted rookie Jaylen Warren, has been a talking point as of late.
Warren, who coming out in the draft was described as a “wrecking ball on wheels” by NFL.
