Dolphins RB Jay Ajayi had 122 yards in the opener, giving him the best yards per game average of any running back in the NFL. Kareem hunt is 2nd with 114. CJ Anderson is 3rd with 99.5 Dalvin Cook is 4th with 95.5 Carlos Hyde is 5th with 8.5
Kind of funny to talk about "yards per game average" after playing only one game haha! But yes it's a real good start. Ajayi is 4th so far on most rushing yards in a single game in 2017: Kareem Hunt week 1: 148 yards Dalvin Cook week 1: 127 yards Carlos Hyde week 2: 124 yards Jay Ajayi week 2: 122 yards
Here's another piece of interesting info: NY Jets are dead LAST in rushing yards given up per game at 185 after two games, and it's not like they gave up a ton to one opponent and a lot less to another. They gave up 190 to Buffalo and 180 to the Raiders. Ajayi has a realistic shot at getting his 4th career 200+ yard rushing game this week! Keep in mind the NFL record for most 200+ yard rushing games in a career is 6, by O.J. Simpson and Adrian Peterson.
