You thought you’d get away from all the drama with our Redskins running back grades? Think again.

Sure, in comparison to the Washington Redskins quarterback dilemma in 2018, the running back situation seems mild, at best, in terms of its tumult. But by itself, the Redskins running back progression in 2018 was a whirlwind, all the same.

Before the start of preseason, the Redskins planned to trot out a three-headed monster consisting of Derrius Guice, Robert Kelley, and Samaje Perine. By season’s end, Adrian Peterson was Washington’s leading rusher, and Byron Marshall joined the burgundy and gold as they limped to a 7-9 finish.

In the Redskins running back report card, there are pleasant surprises, just as there is heartbreak. Let’s comb through the details in the slides to come.
