Ranking NFL running backs: 10. Giovani Bernard, Cincinnati Bengals
Posted Jul 31, 2016
Why is Giovani Bernard, not Jeremy Hill in our top 10? After all, Hill was Cincinnati’s designated starter at running back—he tied for the league lead with 11 touchdowns on the ground last season and led the Bengals with 794 yards rushing. Well, to cut to the chase, Bernard was better across the board last season.
