Nerdy Football Analysis: The player who once started ahead of Alvin Kamara at running back at Tennessee hasn’t been able to catch a break in the NFL yet, as a preseason back injury cost him all of his 2019 season. Hurd was making an impression early in camp and was ticketed for the “big slot” role in the offense, but it appears that will have to wait. With Deebo Samuel also injured and uncertain for Week 1, the drumbeat for rookie Brandon Aiyuk and Jerick McKinnon should continue to pick up.
