Acme Packing Company on Chris Brooks
ArticlePackers Discussion: Which RB should get carries for Green Bay?
From the article
Brooks is actually leading the Packers running backs in snaps on offense this season with 59, 15 more than Lloyd and 45 more than Johnson. Despite that, he carries the ball on only 19 percent of his on-field plays, compared to 43 percent for Lloyd and 57 percent for Johnson. In short, he's on the field a lot, but he's still mostly a pass protector, play-action decoy or route-runner.

Brooks leads in snaps (59) but only 19% carry rate; primarily pass protector.
Brooks leads all Packers running backs with 59 snaps on offense this season (15 more than Lloyd, 45 more than Johnson), but carries the ball on only 19% of his on-field plays compared to 43% for Lloyd and 57% for Johnson; he functions primarily as a pass protector, play-action decoy, or route-runner rather than a featured rusher.
