cliaz Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Running back Najeh Davenport is eager to get back on the field, in part because the Packers have promised him a bigger role with the offense this year if he is healthy. However, he is not expected to participate in the offseason program until the beginning of training camp as he recovers from a broken ankle suffered on November 9th, 2005. Davenport's increased role appears to be slated as a fullback, at least part-time. He has experience at the position, blocking for Edgerrin James and Clinton Portis in college while also taking snaps at tailback. He is also a solid ball carrier who is a big and punishing runner.
