Didn't want to start a new thread for this, hope no one minds me just dropping it here. Got this email from Pro Football Focus about "10 record-breaking rookies from the 2017 NFL season" Pretty damn eye-popping stats for Kareem Hunt in terms of elusiveness when compared to other rookies over the last 12 seasons.
3. Kareem Hunt, RB, Kansas City Chiefs
PFF Era Record Broken: Most missed tackles forced by a rookie running back
Hunt’s NFL career started in the worst way imaginable after he fumbled on his first professional carry, but from then on, he was near-flawless and he ended the year with an overall grade of 88.9, the third-highest grade among running backs. At the close of the campaign, Hunt’s 1,327 rushing yards were good enough to claim the league’s rushing title, while his 527 yards from breakaway runs (runs of 15-plus yards) were also good for first among players at the position. However, it was Hunt’s elusiveness that truly separated him from the pack.
On the ground, he forced a colossal 61 missed tackles as a runner, 13 more than the next running back this year and four more than any other rookie running back in PFF history. Add in the 16 missed tackles that he forced as a receiver and you get a total of 77 missed tackles, nine more than any rookie running back has managed over the last 12 seasons.
