I think it's a great move. Even if the guy's tank is empty he can help Portis, Betts, and Rock understand and excel in this system. Plus when he gets in the game he should provide a reliable breather to Portis, because leading the league in rushing means nothing if you break down in the playoffs. One last point, I'm sure we all remember how injury prone Betts was his first couple years here. Good move by the front office.
