He had a hammy strain that cost him 4 games back in 2018, according to DraftSharks injury history report. But hasn't reappeared since.
He had pedal ankle a couple times, but not since Oct. 2021.
A couple shoulder injuries. Sorry, injured his shoulder several times both in college and the NFL, but hasn't missed a game for it since 2019.
And a groin injury once.
so yeah, he's not invincible, but he hasn't missed many games due to injury in awhile.
Either way, he's not a backup RB. He's like CMC; he should be starting somewhere in 2023. We have Pacheco, and i don't see demoting Pacheco to backup as reasonable, that's all.
