Black gave way to James in the second quarter. On a 3rd & 1 run, James attempted to cut against the grain instead of staying on his path and picking up the first down. James broke a run himself. He had a 17-yarder and also took a screen pass 20 yards.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

James showed promise but needs to improve short-yardage decision-making.

Backup running back took over from Kaelon Black in the second quarter; on a 3rd & 1 run, attempted to cut against the grain instead of staying on his path and picking up the first down, a learning moment; later broke a 17-yard run and took a screen pass 20 yards; not flashy but bounces off tackles and falls forward for extra yards, the type of back to maximize yardage in short-yardage situations with development.
