    Did he get signed to the 53 man roster?

    I was very impressed with him on Sunday but will temper my enthusiasm.
    You don't sit on the practice squad roster if you are "The Guy"
    and if he was "The Guy" someone would have come in and scooped him up.

    I'm pulling for him though.

    I see Jawhar having lots of 2-3 yard gains. At times he will be popped at the line of scrimmage but if we stay patient he will break a long one. Kind of like betting.

    I think Jordan actually compliments Woody well. He is your home run hitter back. He's not going to break tackles, though.

    The jump cut looked legit from my seats. Haven't seen that since #23 was around.

    Ive always wondered how he was doing on the PS and how he always reminded me of Jamaal Charles. More screens and stretch scheming for the young man please.

    Jordan is a good change of pace RB. He's not a 3 down RB. He's got a place in the NFL but I hope fans keep their expectations tempered.

    I would bet the coaching staff is not high on jordan because hes probably bad at blocking which they demand from RBs.

    Jordan's vision was apparent in his first preseason with the team. I kind of forgot about him, but it's good to see he still has that. I don't know how he doesn't get more reps after that debut. Yeah, he isn't the biggest, and he might, MIGHT, be poor at blocking, but we need an RB threat in the worst way right now. I say play the kid. Lord knows CJ needs the weapons.

    He is already our best runner from the gun.
    No, it's too small of a sample size. 8 yards per carry from gun.(66% of his carries)

    But our backs do run it better from that formation than i or single back which I found a bit surprising.

    Chubb 3.4 yards per carry when the qb is under center (61% of his carries). 5.3 from the gun (39% of his carries)

    Marks: 2.9 yards per carry when the qb is under center (70% of the carries), 4.6 yards from gun (30% of his carries)


    In order for Nick's offense to fully work that under center has to get to a respectable level no ifs about it.

    He was good against the cardinals but he’s way too small in my opinion.

    when we go up against better teams he don’t have the power to get us 2 yards in the trenches. He would have be used as a receiving type back to be impactful.

    We have no 30 carry backs. We have to rely on rotation.
