In 2024 with JT rushing at a rate of 4.7 ypc, he was #8 in RBs on ypc. That is good, but no where near "elite" if that is what we are hoping for.
For an elite back like Henry, as a team you often overlook the other things that a RB does not do well. However, for all his potential and our hopes, I don't know that JT is elite.

After battling thru the ankle issues he ran for 1400 yards in 14 games last year.
I believe his last 4 games will carry over to this season, the last 4 games he looked like the dominant player he was in year 2. He ran for 723 yards the last 5 games of the season
