Second-year running back Paul Perkins started off his career in style, showing his elusiveness and insane agility throughout the 2016 season.

The New York Giants rookie finished off the 2016 season with 456 yards on 112 attempts, not too shabby. He averaged 4.1 yards per carry and 10.8 yards per reception.
