Bilal Powell came up big for the Jets in 2016, but Gang Green should still be looking to add some power to their backfield.
Perhaps looking to add some more competition in the team’s backfield, the Jets are working out a familiar face in running back Bilal Powell. It was believed that Powell’s time in Green and White was over forever when he suffered a season ending neck injury last season, but this could open the door for his return.
Brian Costello of the New York Post is reporting that Powell is working out for the team today. With Le’Veon Bell, Eli Mcguire, Ty Montgomery and Trenton Cannon currently on the roster, bringing Powell back would decrease the likelihood of Cannon sticking on the team’s 53-man roster.
