Found this on Jaguars.com in a Q/A with their beat writer. Would love to see Todman make the team and earn some PT this year!
With Maurice Jones-Drew coming back from injury and Robinson unproven in his role, how many running backs do you think the Jags will keep? I've heard good things about Forsett, but how areJonathan Grimes and the other RBs doing? If this year is anything like last year, they'll see the field.
John: The nature of the NFL is that depth typically sees the field, and running back is no exception. The coaches like Forsett, and his quickness is impressive. A player to watch is third-team running back Jordan Todman. He shows up and seems to stand out every practice, and in no way seems overwhelmed by his circumstance. He is strong and has good quickness. As much as a third-team back can show before the preseason games begin, he has shown.
