Vikings primed to have a 1-2 punch at running back
The
Minnesota Vikings struggled massively to run the football in 2023.........They addressed the position in a major way this o***eason by signing running back
Aaron Jones away from the Green Bay Packers and that theoretically will take the Vikings rushing attack to another level.
It isn't just Jones that will be a big impact.
Ty Chandler is going into his third season as a Viking and is
impressing Harrison Phillips, calling the two running backs a one-two punch.
“I see us as having a one-two punch at running back (Aaron Jones),” Phillips said, “almost like they have in Detroit. I don’t know if that’s what’s happening on the offensive side, but I know that we have two true No. 1 running backs. I’d buy stock in Ty Chandler if I could.”
Chandler...........if he fixes his pass-blocking issues, the Vikings will be able to trust him as a legitimate top option.
