2016 Free Agency Outlook: Running Backs

While Matt Jones is in line to be the Washington Redskins’ starting running back for the 2016 season, they’ll likely be in position to add to their depth at the position this offseason.

After being a surprising face in the starting lineup for the Redskins’ 2012 season opener against the New Orleans Saints, Alfred Morris, a sixth-round pick that year, started every game over the four-year span.

After setting the franchise single-season record for rushing yards (1,613) as a rookie, Morris currently ranks fifth all-time in Redskins history for rushing yards (4,713) and is seventh all-time in rushing touchdowns (29).
