With the NFL largely being a backfield-by-committee league, teams often look for running backs who can specialize in a specific area. So, while he was coming off an injury, it was likely Cohen could find a new home because of his skill set as a shifty, receiving back that can be moved around the formation. Unfortunately, the recent Tarik Cohen injury on Instagram will likely postpone his NFL return.
