Unbreakable Beasts: NFL Draft's Top Running Backs Who Defy Tackling
Overall, Johnson forced 0.222 missed or broken tackles per touch, which was third-best among the classâ top seven running backs. Iowa had a severely lacking passing game, and defenses knew they could key on Johnson, who had an absurd 59% usage rate when he was on the field (in contrast, Jeanty saw the ball on 53% of his snaps).
Defenses simply struggled to get Johnson to the ground.
3. TreVeyon Henderson, Ohio State
Working in a timeshare with Quinshon Judkins for the national champion Buckeyes, Henderson averaged 3.20 yards after contact, best in this class behind Jeanty. Hendersonâs 0.222 missed or broken tackles per touch ranked No. 3 in this group.
