Philadelphia Eagles: 10 free agent RBs to possibly replace Jordan Howard

Jonathan Williams is one of those under-the-radar guys who could be a star on the right team. He’s also young at 26, something NFL teams tend to love in running backs, but he’s proven to be dependable when called upon. Just look at what he did in an Indianapolis Colts jersey in 2019.

Can he carry the load for an NFL offense? That’s hard to tell. Why hasn’t he been able to find a home? That’s up for debate. He’s been on three different teams in three different seasons, but he is one of the game’s best reserve backs. Count them up. He’s racked up 329 yards on 79 carries and 60 yards on seven career receptions. We know one thing. He should be fresh when he arrives for his next stop.

The Oakland Raiders may be willing to part with DeAndre’ Washington seeing as how they have a pretty gifted runner in the form of Josh Jacobs. The latter missed three games this season, and that’s where the former did some of his best work of the 2019 campaign.

Washington is decent as a ball carrier and a very good receiver out of the backfield. In 2019, he racked up 387 yards on 108 carries, a career-high, and he caught 36 passes for 292 yards. He also reached the end zone three times. He’s got a lot left in the tank at 26 years of age.

On another note, it’s going to be hard to remember to type ‘Las Vegas Raiders’ in a few months.
