O’Connell mentioned that he and Nolan Teasley would be discussing options in the backfield after Aaron Jones rushed the ball 23 times and
the only other ball carrier was DeeJay Dallas with two runs for eight yards. Their lack of trust in Demond Claiborne has put the team in the spot to either look to add from outside or bump Jerome Ford up from the practice squad.

While there hasn't really been a name that has fallen in terms of overall stock, the fact that the running back room is so stacked, and Allen is starting to stand out, along with Rachaad White showing his speed and receiving skills coming out of the backfield, and the walls are starting to close in a bit on Jerome Ford. Still a lot of time in between what could be his chance to shine in the burgundy & gold, or finding a spot on the practice squad/another team.
