I didn't know that. He was a bit of a legend at OU, for breaking tackles, that's for sure. Heard a guy back then say he was Earl Campbell lite. Just a big, physical RB in a FB's body.
For that matter, Chase is like 6' 2" 210lbs, i think? Higgins is 6' 4" 220.
Name a S in the league as big as Higgins.
Point being, CIN has a lot of big skill players. In an era where most LBs and DBs are getting a little smaller than they were 20 years ago because everyone is trending towards speed and quickness. Well, you're going to give something up in tackling efficiency when those guys face bigger skill players.
