RB has impressed with speed, receiving ability
RB Isaiah Crowell is faster than I expected. He’s a better receiver than Bowles expected. He’ll be a big factor. (ESPN – Rich Cimini)
Nerdy Football Analysis: Crowell never consistently quite got the workload owners expected (or that HC Hue Jackson promised on a regular basis), but he has a grand opportunity to do so in New York. The Jets have seemingly identified Bilal Powell and Elijah McGuire as change-of-pace backs, so there’s no reason Crowell can’t top 200 carries as the likely only “big back” on the roster.
