From ESPN PR, here are some of the anticipated show highlights: The Last of the Workhorse Running Back: With the NFL trending towards the use of running backs by committee, it appears the days teams used running backs who carry the ball 20 or 30 times per game are fast becoming history, except for Baltimore’s Ray Rice and Houston’s Arian Foster. Leading up to Ravens-Texans matchup, Hall of Fame running back Earl Campbell, the epitome of workhorse backs, narratesCountdown’s look at the evolution of the running back position. LaMarr Woodley: Pittsburgh Steelers’ LaMarr Woodley played football at Saginaw (Mich.) High School, one of the counties across the U.S. facing shortfalls in funding to sustain athletic programs in their districts. Last summer, Woodley paid the $60,000 to fund the Saginaw football program. Rachel Nichols reports how the Steelers linebacker is making it possible for student-athletes from his hometown to follow in his footsteps. DJ Porter Spin on the Jets: The New York Jets are going through another up-and-down season. DJ Steve Porter returns with his musical spin on Gang Green, mixing music and Jets sound from their roller coaster season ahead of their showdown with the New England Patriots on Sunday.
