NFL running backs may be woefully underpaid as opposed to other position groups, but they’re among the most important players on the field. A great running back can take an ordinary offense and make it extraordinary, as Christian McCaffrey has done in San Francisco.
The Falcons drafted Bijan Robinson in the first round of the 2023 draft and he’s single-handedly kept their offense afloat this season. Let’s check out the top 10 rushing leaders entering Week 14.
