Buccaneers: The Situation at Running Back

After a lackluster 2016 year of running the rock, the Tampa bay Buccaneers look once again for a solution to their run-first offense. As it stands now Tampa has every running back returning from the previous season, add in rookie Jeremy McNichols… and now we have a true competition.
