Washington coaches eyeing more carries for Rob Kelley

CSN reporter JP Finlay: “In wins against the Giants and Browns, Matt Jones played a decisive role for the Redskins, running the ball downhill on drives that would seal wins for Washington. Last Sunday in a win over Baltimore, Jones struggled, and while the Ravens defense played well, No. 2 running back Rob Kelley looked sharp.”

“I think you’ll see more of Robert. I think Robert shows that he’s deserving of some carries,” ‘Skins coach Jay Gruden said Monday. “You know, we like Matt Jones, but I think there’s a good combination there where the both of them can get the ball. (CSN Mid-Atlantic)

Nerdy Football Analysis: This isn’t great for Jones owners, and it’s not going to be an immediately huge impact. But the more Kelley — a rookie back out of Tulane — comes along in his development, the less of a workhorse role we’ll see from Jones.
