Despite drafting Christian McCaffrey in the NFL Draft, it is expected that the Panthers will give the bulk of the carries to Jonathan Stewart.
Stewart was 20^th out of 62 qualified running backs last year with an overall grade of 73.9.
Stewart was also third out of 25 qualified running backs in elusive rating (uses missed tackle rate and yards gained after contact to measure a runner’s success beyond the point of being helped by his blockers) at 59.6, and he finished 10^th in yard after contact per attempt at 2.75.
