As the NFL continues to change, committee backfields have come more frequent. A popular committee over the last couple of seasons has been Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt. There are a few bell-cow back situations, like Derrick Henry, who sucks up 90% of the team snaps. It takes us back to the days where running backs were the workhorses of the league. While we have seen a little more of that, teams are adding two styles of backs to make up one. Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon are a good example of two running backs that complement each other, but cut into each other’s workload.
