The 10 Worst Starting Running Backs From the 2016 NFL Season

Rob Kelley, Washington

Rushing Success Rate: 37.50% (168 rushes, 63 successes)

Matt Jones set the bar extremely low in Washington, so Rob Kelley was an upgrade for the Redskins’ backfield once he became the starter.

Basically a two-down, touchdown-dependent back, the rookie lost snaps to Chris Thompson on passing downs. Kelley became Washington’s primary runner in Week, and he kicked-off a three-game streak of 20-plus carries, averaging 107 rushing yards per game in that span.

It was his most productive stretch of the season, capped by a three-touchdown game in Week 11. Kelley fell into the end zone twice during the fantasy playoffs, but he averaged a paltry 3.3 yards per carry over his last six games.
