Who Should I Start? Kendall Milton or Sean Tucker

Former University of Georgia running back Kendall Milton signed with the Philadelphia Eagles as an undrafted free agent, according to NFL.com. Milton had a strong career at Georgia considering the team opted to use a committee approach, racking up 297 carries for 1,839 yards (6.2 YPC) and 23 touchdowns in 41 career games. Last season, he rushed for 790 yards and 14 touchdowns on just 121 attempts. However, he caught just 12 passes during his entire four-year collegiate career and struggled at the NFL combine, which are likely primary factors in him going unselected during the 2024 NFL Draft. He'll have a tough road ahead in trying to make the team's 53-man roster.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker did a solid job on the ground during Saturday's preseason opener against the Cincinnati Bengals. The second-year back barely touched the field during his rookie season in Tampa Bay. Tucker is looking to secure the backup role behind Rachaad White. He certainly helped his case while rushing for 68 yards on 10 carries in the win. The Bucs No. 2 job behind White appears to be wide open right now. That being said, both Tucker and Bucky Irving made strong cases during the preseason opener. There is still a few more games for these two to separate themselves before Week 1. Whoever earns the job should see a handful of carries behind White on a weekly basis.
