Huge? He's not huge. 228 lbs.? Hell, Elliott is that big. People act like he's 245-250 lbs. He's a big guy, but not for an NFL running back.
It’s true. His height and weight really don’t classify as huge. I suppose his running style and muscularity lead people to label him ‘huge’.

The #2 job is Rod Smith's to lose at this point.

Watching his highlights of Scarbrough, he looks like a bigger version of Marion Barber.

For his size, Scarbrough looks like he has decent enough burst (not Zeke burst) and once he does get going he can move the ball through a few hits.

If the OL can get back to 2016 form and IF he makes the team, I don't think it would be outragous to see him get 60-100 carries in a season and take some load off of Zeke so he's fresher at year's end.

Scarborough is well over scale for a Back. He's a legit 6'1" and 1/2 and will play about 240.
The 228 was a combine weight meant show his best vert and 40 times.

If you've seen the pic of him standing next to Mark Ingram you see why Ingram started using PEDs, lol.

He's likely going to be a hammer used as a short yardage guy and a heck of a tool in the toolkit next to Zeke and Tavon Austin.
Austin is small but insanely fast.He excelled going back to WVU on those wheel and bubble screen patterns.
He's too small to be a true outside WR but his soeed his stretch the field and threaten defenses.
It's a really, really promising RB group.

Can see how game plans would come together with Zeke the bellcow and 2 big physical dudes behind him for depth and Austin there to present a speed and width challenge.

Learn the system and how to hit the holes and he will be fine. If we can get him the ball on passes out of the back field he will be a load to bring down.

You might not think it, but Scarborough is a pretty good receiver himself.
