Former Seahawks running back Thomas Rawls is set to visit the Jets on Thursday, a source told Brian Costello of the New York (Twitter link). 
At the outset of the period, Rawls was not tendered by the Seahawks as a restricted free agent.
The visit marks the second stop in free agency for the third-year running back, who also met with the Chiefs earlier this month. The Jets have recently added former Browns running back Isaiah Crowell to their backfield, pairing him with Bilal Powell and Elijah McGuire.
Undrafted coming out of Central Michigan in 2015, Rawls enjoyed a strong start to his career as a fill-in for Marshawn Lynch, posting 830 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games as a rookie. That season he also led the league in yards per attempts with 5.6. He has yet to replicate that success, however, gaining just 506 yards in 21 games over the last two seasons. In 2017, he featured in a revolving-door backfield in Seattle with Eddie Lacy, Chris Carson and J.D. McKissic.
Man! What happened to that dynasty in Seattle ? It sure didn’t last long did it?
Nothing last forever. We won a SB. That’s all that matters. PC & JS decided they didn’t want to wait another year w/ the vets and decided to reload. Well…they call it reload…I call it a rebuild…I don’t think they’re doing much this year. Rawls was overrated anyways. Hope Chris Carson can come back 100% that or the Hawks can draft someone like Michel. We shall see….Anyways i’m still happy for the LA Rams. Hope the injury bug doesn’t bite them like it did us last year.
Jets stocking up on reserve RB’s. Love the strategy. Great use of all that cap money.
‘Pairing him’ doesn’t grammatically make sense, but the content is what really matters so thank you. (Constructive criticism isn’t well received in 2018)
Not a bad guy to have on their roster
