Strengths & concerns
Pros / cons +

Pros

  • Elite, healthy, freshly extended bell-cow back behind a top-5 PFF-graded O-line (Nelson 84.7, Bortolini 82.6, Raimann 82.0)
  • Played all 17 games in 2025 with a league-leading 323 carries -- proven three-down/red-zone workhorse role
  • 1,585 rush yards and 18 rush TDs in 2025; favorable 2026 schedule per early positional rankings
  • No hamstring/ACL/concussion flags -- clean recent injury profile

Cons

  • Colts coaches have explicitly said they want to reduce his touches after the 323-carry season -- 2026 volume is less certain
  • Minimal receiving involvement caps PPR upside relative to pass-catching RBs
  • 18 rush TDs on heavy red-zone volume is a TD-regression risk even if carries hold
  • OC Jim Bob Cooter is a reported Eagles OC candidate as of early Aug 2026 -- scheme continuity uncertain
