Nyheim Hines Wants 1,000 Yards From Scrimmage
5 years agoIndianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines' goal for the 2019 season is 1,000 yards from scrimmage. He carried the ball 85 times for 314 ards and caught 63 passes for 425 yards in his rookie season. Only T.Y. Hilton and Eric Ebron had more receptions than Hines last year, but with both Marlon Mack and Jordan Wilkins also sharing the backfield it'll be hard for Hines to come anywhere close to 1,000 all-purpose yards unless an injury occurs. He might even see fewer receptions out of the backfield now that the Colts added Devin Funchess and rookie Parris Campbell to the receiver corps. Hines averaged only 3.7 yards per carry, a full yard below the combined average of Mack and Wilkins.
