Buffalo Bills Offseason Preview: Running Backs

The 2019 season saw major changes at the running back position for the Buffalo Bills and there will likely be more heading into 2020.

The Buffalo Bills made a surprising move at the start of the 2019 season when they released their featured running back of the past six years, LeSean McCoy. The organization felt it was time to move in another direction and they were validated in that decision this past season.

This was due in large part to rookie running Devin Singletary, who broke out down the stretch for this offense. The third round pick out of Florida Atlantic over the final nine games of the regular season averaged 16 carries and 75 rushing yards per game. He surpassed veteran Frank Gore as the team’s featured running back and the hope is he will build on this strong finish going into his second year.

After Singletary, there is plenty of uncertainty about the direction the team will go in. Will the front office look for a complimentary back to Singletary or having a player comparable that can essentially split the workload.

We will take a look at where the depth chart currently stands, which players on the team is set to be free agents and how they may address the position this offseason.
