Rookie Kenny Irons, who I was predicting to cut into Rudi Johnson's time at Cincinnati, has popped an ACL and is done for the year, according to CBS Sportsline.
Just in case you were one of the few worried that the coaches finally had a running back to spell Johnson with, you can now safely draft Johnson toward the bottom of the first round. He remains as close to a sure bet to get 1300 yards and 12 TDs as there is.

Funny, when this was reported on a major sports network, the emphasis was on the fact that Rudi has carried the ball more than anyone else over the last 3 years. If you subscribe to the school of thought that high workloads typically result in injury plagued seasons with lower production, you might conclude that Rudi has just become a much more dangerous pick even at the age of 28.
