Summary

Running Back Rank: #27All Players: #75

Green-Ellis set a career high in rushing yards, his first with the Bengals. He had the second 1,000-yard season of his career. He wasn't great early in the year but really finished well, having 100-yard games four of the six games he played. He did break a streak of two straight seasons with double-digit scores, though, scoring just six times. Green-Ellis also averaged less than four yards per carry for the year, which wasn't too impressive. He might have a hard time getting as much work this season as the Bengals try to find a more explosive back in the running back. Green-Ellis isn't a speed burner, but a solid inside runner and tough to bring down once he gets going. He does a good job of hitting the hole with a head of steam. He isn't much of a receiver, though, having 48 receptions in five seasons.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Green-Ellis might have a hard time repeating last year. We think he'll get fewer touches, so his numbers will suffer some. We still like his touchdown potential, though, and it could improve this season. Expect around 1,000 total yards and nine touchdowns for Green-Ellis.

Cincinnati Bengals RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis said he is in favor of the new rule involving the crown of players' helmets but is not sure how it will be officiated. 'I'm all for the safety part of it. I just don't know how they're going to call it,' Green-Ellis said. 'They're putting a lot on the referees. That's to be played out. That's what the preseason is for and that type of stuff.' He said he does not think the rule will impact him much because he does not lead with his helmet while running.

Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden said he believes RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis would be fine with sharing carries with a change-of-pace back. 'BenJarvus would probably welcome it,' Gruden said. 'It takes some carries off of him. Some guys want the ball every single play, but some guys like to get that rest and come out and have that change of pace guy. It would be nice. RB Cedric Peerman proved he could possibly be that guy. He had some big runs against Oakland and other teams. Maybe he'll step up in that role next year.'

Cincinnati Bengals RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis had a good, but not great, season, but offensive coordinator Jay Gruden feels his team lacked a speedy 'gamebreaker' at running back. The team would like to find a speed back to complement Green-Ellis, and Gruden points to the draft. 'We do probably need some kind of pace-changer, game-changer, speed, some breakaway-type thing,' Gruden said.
