I was always surprised that he wasn't able to stick around anywhere after he left Miami. I guess he lost a step and that was that.

He actually had his best years immediately following leaving Miami while in Arizona. I think he had a lot of touchdowns one year.

He was fine for a rotational player. Nothing exciting.
 
Never knew after a decent season in '22 with Balt that he was cut by four teams in '23: (Colts, Ravens again, Browns, Packers). He bounced around, but a career 4.4 ypc ain’t too shabby. Almost 4,000 rushing yds

18 rushing TDs in two years in AZ. I lost track of him after he went to the Cards. Wasn’t it Gase who traded him even though we didn’t have much in the way of a backfield? I can’t remember the details but I believe it was a bit controversial because I think it left us with Damien Williams and nothing else really. Anyhow, Drake scored a lot of TDs (over 40) in his career on fairly limited touches (not a bell cow). Good career.

We had the visionless Kalen Ballage IIRC.
 
Never quite lived up to the promise we hope for but he was part of an all time classic walk off/buzzer beater play.

That highlight will live as long as the NFL.

For a 3rd round pick he was very productive for us. He even had a KO return TD his rookie year.
