Buccaneers running back room: Who should team go forward with?

Where does the Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back room stand, and where should it go?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a much-improved run game in 2020 compared to recent seasons. The improvement truly started back in 2019. George Warhop, the offensive line coach, was released when the Bruce Arians regime came in and cleaned up shop, leading to an immediate improvement in line play, and ultimately the rushing attack. The addition of Tristan Wirfs and Alex Cappa added, respectively, good and elite talent to the line. Peyton Barber was overtaken by a surging Ronald Jones, and last year the Bucs scooped up a much-maligned Leonard Fournette off the streets. All of this together took the team from 3.7 yards per carry in 2019 to 4.1 in 2020. for a truly drastic improvement

The Bucs improved run game was an integral part of getting to the postseason in 2020. In fact, Leonard Fourtnette earned the moniker “Playoff Lenny” for his playoff performances to really drive this point home. However, the time for celebration is over, and it’s time to start moving forward instead of looking back. So on that note, what should the Bucs plan for running back be for next year?
