The Oakland Tribune expects Marcel Reece to "again recede into the background" with Rashad Jennings cleared from his concussion. The Trib's Jerry McDonald is the second Raiders beat writer to expect Jennings to immediately assume a clear-cut lead back role in Week 15, despite Reece's 161-yard, one-score shredding of the Jets' formerly league-best run defense. "Whatever these coaches need me to do, whatever my team needs me to do, I'm going to do it," said ultimate team player Reece. Look for Reece to be Jennings' change-of-pace back this week against Kansas City.

Reece is a better WR out the back the a runningback out the back look at his numbers in all and rec Cleary is where he shines make him a fullback and have him come out the back feild and get WR yards to open up everything.

Why doesn't Reece ever get the opportunity? Even last season when McFadden was out Reece put up huge numbers for a couple games and then faded out.

IDK man, he rushed for 75 yards a game with zero TD's in his 3 starts last year I wouldn't call that huge.. And a man his size can't carry the work load for a full season. And besides it is the Raiders after all.
