Jacksonville Jaguars' TJ Yeldon: 'I will have to earn my role'

Jacksonville Jaguars running back TJ Yeldon has acknowledged that he has a lot of work to do to become the club's primary back.

The 21-year-old was selected in the second round of the 2015 Draft out of the Alabama Crimson Tide, and has revealed that he will have to earn the opportunity to contribute next season.

"I got myself as last, and I'm still trying to work my way up to the top," Yeldon told NFL Network.

"I'm just out there to compete and work my way up to the top, see what I can do."

Yeldon rushed for 3,322 yards and 37 touchdowns in his three years at Alabama.
