He was a bit on the slow side even for an RB…and that was before the Achilles Tear. 

Opens the door for more touches for Pierre Strong (and Harris). Can’t complain.

Yeah.  He was never really anything special.  He was a pretty mediocre back who landed in the right place at the right time.  Capitalized on that.  Then suffered an injury that basically nuked what little athleticism he initially had.

 

Slow, non-dynamic RBs who aren't particularly good at anything and have no standout anything just aren't useful on a roster.  There are UDFAs and guys who get cut through camp every year who are better bets than that.

Can he play special teams at all?

No.

 

He's not a good athlete.  He was a serviceable RB briefly, on the strength of his ability to just read blocks and take what's there.  But he's slow and unathletic and that's only going to be worse now.
