Joe McKnight will be the first USC Trojan running back selected at the 2010 NFL draft, but he may not have the best career. Fellow USC tail back Stafon Johnson had himself solid first month last year (five touchdown in four games) until he suffered a scary neck injury while bench pressing. I’m sure many [...]
