Texans RB Jordan Outperforms Chubb
18 Oct
Summary
- Jordan out-snapped and out-touched veteran RB Nick Chubb.
- Jordan replaced starting RB Marks briefly after a hard hit.
- Jordan was the Texans' No. 2 running back in the recent game.
In the Texans' recent matchup against the Chargers, running back Jawhar Jordan demonstrated a strong performance, out-snapping veteran Nick Chubb 11 to 5 and out-touching him 8 to 1. When starting running back Woody Marks took a hit in the fourth quarter, Jordan was called upon to briefly replace him.
Jordan, who is the team's No. 2 running back, recorded 53 rushing yards on 15 carries and added 17 receiving yards on five catches. Despite a notable performance, Jordan was on the field for only 30 of the 62 offensive snaps, according to early data. His role is considered a FLEX play for the upcoming week, especially as Woody Marks may have a chance to return from his ankle injury in Week 17.
