I think Emmett will continue to get more snaps, and that will take a little bit of the load off [Kenneth Walker]. I think as it goes on, you get a nice balance with those two in there, and it keeps them more fresh as the season goes on.

Johnson trending toward increased snaps; part of balanced backfield plan.

Rookie running back Emmett Johnson is expected to continue receiving increased snaps as the season progresses, forming a one-two punch with Kenneth Walker. Reid's plan is to gradually give Johnson more opportunities to grow, which will help distribute the workload and keep both backs fresher throughout the season.
