Week 2 at Carolina Panthers
As expected, the Bucs went with a committee running back in Week 1. But the breakdown didn't quite happen as we expected. Dare Ogunbowale (27) actually led the backfield in offensive snaps with Peyton Barber (25) and Ronald Jones (22) right behind him. However, Jones led the way with the most carries, running the ball 13 times for 75 yards, which also adding one catch for 18 yards. He already has more rushing yards in 2019 than he did in 2018.
We can likely expect Tampa Bay to continue this three-headed attack, especially Thursday night against the Panthers. Carolina had a hard time stopping the Rams in Week 1, so Tampa could find success this week. Still, all three backs have limited ceilings since they're all being used. Jones should be viewed as nothing more than an RB3 play.
