Running Back/Fullback

LeSean McCoy, Frank Gore, Devin Singletary, T.J. Yeldon, Patrick Dimarco

Cut: Senorise Perry, Marcus Murphy, Christian Wade

The final running back spot has been up for grabs all preseason with no player really running away with the job. After the first preseason game, it seemed like Senorise Perry was the favorite however T.J. Yeldon has bounced back after the Colts game.

While Marcus Murphy tried to make a strong case in the final preseason game, and certainly had the play of the game with an 80-yard punt return for a touchdown, he seems like a longshot at this point.

In the end, T.J. Yeldon gets the nod here because he is a better all around back between himself, Perry and Marcus Murphy. The experience he has at the position to go along with his ability as a runner and a receiver strengthens the position and provides quality depth.
