Blue's RB2 path hinges on proving pass protection after disappointing rookie season.

Jaydon BlueRBDAL

Blue is competing for the RB2 spot behind starter Javonte Williams. The former Texas running back has game-changing speed and big-play ability that would complement Williams' physical style. He was a complementary back in college and is tabbed to be one in the NFL. However, his first season in Dallas proved disappointing; aside from a 16-carry performance in Week 18, Blue was basically a nonfactor in his rookie year. In Year 2, Blue has said the right things in the offseason and done the right things early in training camp, putting him back on track to be the RB2 he was meant to be. But there is one unavoidable quality he must prove before officially being given the RB2 designation: pass protection. Good defensive coordinators will eventually find ways to test pass protection skills, and Blue must demonstrate this critical aspect of the job.
