FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) -Beanie Wells seems comfortable with the idea that this could be his breakout season in the NFL.
The quick, powerful running back from Ohio State enters his second pro season healthy and confident in his abilities, a far cry from his rookie training camp, when he was slowed by an ankle injury and had to learn patience as he slowly worked into the offense behind starter Tim Hightower.
Wells says his goal is to be a lot more productive than he was last year and, as he put it, “if that comes with a breakout season, so be it.”
Coach Ken Whisenhunt believes in a two-back system, with Wells and Hightower again sharing the duties. Wells would rather be the No. 1 guy all by himself and acknowledges “it is very hard” to share the load.
