Last but not least, the running back depth chart behind Christian McCaffrey has been totally shaken up from 2019. Reggie Bonnafon was McCaffrey’s main backup last year and he did a fine job, averaging 7.3 yards per carry on offense and playing over 50% of the team’s special teams snaps. Bonnafon also made the practice squad, but his spot on the roster went to Trenton Cannon, instead. It’s unclear what role Cannon will play given McCaffrey’s snap count and the veteran Mike Davis drawing so much praise from coach Rhule.
