Rashad Jennings

Rashad Jennings has played for three teams in seven years in the NFL. The last three seasons he played for the Eagles division enemies, the New York Giants. Injuries have affected Jennings throughout his career. The only time he was able to play a full season was in 2015, when he rushed for 863 yards and three touchdowns. Last season, Jennings missed three games due to injury and saw his carries taken away as the Giants started to utilize their rookie running back Paul Perkins more.

Jennings has gained little attention as a free agent this offseason. Instead of working out for other teams, he has been cutting a rug on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. Jennings’ football days may be behind him and would most likely not be a great fit for the Eagles backfield.
