The journey of Chris Ivory: Dismissed, discarded and, finally, celebrated

"The best back we had"

I think that's arguable. I think id take a prime PT over Ivory 10/10 times. It's more of a scheme fit thing. Ivory is a great pure runner, can't do the pass protection and wasn't a good receiver. Not to mention his annual injury bug. Typically a hammy strain he'd give himself after being active a handful of games.
