We all already know and are frustrated with his usage, but just wanted to provide league-wide context to show just how absurd this is. Bijan has carried the ball 103 times out of 270 team rushing attempts, for a 38% clip. Here are the league’s other lead backs (who have played all of their team’s games):
J Jacobs: 74%
J Mixon: 74%
D Henry: 67%
K Walker: 67%
T Etienne: 64%
A Mattison: 62%
Brian Robinson 60%
C McCaffrey: 56%
R White: 56%
I Pacheco: 55%
B Hall: 53%
T Pollard: 52%
N Harris: 52%
R Stevenson: 51%
Z Moss: 51%
R Mostert: 48%
J Cook: 47%
D Swift: 47%
Bijan: 38%
And here’s the kicker. Bijan is averaging more yards per carry (5.0) than all of them except for Mostert & Hall.
Next grab the same list and order by total routes run. I imagine Bijan is up there. Not defending his usage because I think he needs way more RB touches but he is often running a route at WR or in the slot.
