I do not believe that Jacquizz Rodgers is the answer as the AK insurance back. He was a street FA this offseason, and the Saints were the only team to show any interest. He’s a capable runner and receiving RB, but his ceiling is very low and his best days are behind him. I find myself thinking of players that could fill that role for the Saints as a reserve RB with upside and position flexibility, and I keep coming back to one name...
C.J. Prosise
Prosise converted from WR to RB while at Notre Dame, and he is a very natural receiver, with the ability to run most routes with ease. He also has very good speed and sneaky power as a runner. He has struggled to remain healthy during his time in Seattle, and has subsequently found himself buried on the depth chart. The Seahawks are a power running team, and with Chris Carson and Rashaad Penny entrenched as the 1st and 2nd option in the backfield, Prosise is left as the 2nd receiving back behind teammate JD McKissic. McKissic though, offers more special teams value than Prosise, so he appears to be locked in ahead of Prosise on the depth chart. Perhaps a change of scenery and offensive philosophy would benefit Prosise, and he is considered a prime “bubble” player for Seattle’s final cut-down.
One other “bubble” player that has also caught my eye is TJ Yeldon. Yeldon is a very capable receiver, but he is in a very crowded situation in Buffalo, and has also been rumored to be a cut candidate.
