PROVO, Utah — Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams finished his collegiate career as the all-time leading rusher in BYU history and now the Cougars must find a way to replace his 1,375 yards from 2016. “I personally feel if you gave one person a shot, you never know who’s going to have a breakout season,” Canada said. “That’s why I’ve been busting my tail during the off-season to say, ‘I want to be that guy.’ That’s no disrespect to the other running backs. Running backs coach Reno Mahe said there’s so much different from 2016 it’s unfair to make a direct comparison to what Williams accomplished. Check-downs are being emphasized as the running backs should be more involved in the passing game.
