I don't think running is a problem as long as they get on the ground and not lower their head. Mc is still lowering his head too much. He will learn after a couple of good pastings though:) They aren't padded for that either. Also I think running backs average life expectancy is quite low like 5 seasons while quarterbacks usually can enjoy quite a bit longer careers but that may get slanted by a guy that runs all the time at QB.
