Giovani Bernard Likely To Serve In Pass-Catching Role
4 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers running back Giovani Bernard looked impressive in voluntary organized team activities and at Tom Brady's unofficial workouts, and he's most likely to serve as the team's third-down and pass-catching back while Ronald Jones II and Leonard Fournette battle for primary ball-carrying duties. Bernard has averaged 42 catches per season in his eight-year career, and his experience gives him the edge over Ke'Shawn Vaughn on the depth chart. Bernard is an exciting addition to the defending Super Bowl champion's offense, but with so many mouths to feed, his involvement could be unpredictable and frustrating. Still, as the likely primary pass-catching back behind Brady, Bernard is worth taking a chance on later in full-PPR drafts.
