Rashaad Penny Struggles In Return In Week 7
3 years agoSeattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny hadn't played since Week 1, and it sure looked like it in his return during the team's Week 7 loss to the New Orleans Saints on Monday night. Penny finished the game with six carries for nine yards, with a long of five yards. Penny was on the field for 36 percent of the snaps, which was second only to teammate Alex Collins' 39 percent. However, Collins had 17 total touches with the rest of the running backs totaling just seven. It was good to see Penny get back on the field, as he's been beaten up consistently throughout his career. The former first-rounder could see his role increase in this backfield alongside Collins until Chris Carson (neck) returns from Injured Reserve, but for now, he's only a deep-league stash.
