Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson was a force in 2016, leading the NFL in yards from scrimmage and in touchdowns. He also led in another stat, but not one the NFL keeps.

He forced the most missed tackles in the league, counting receptions and rushing attempts, according to Pro Football Focus.

He forced defenders to miss 71 tackles, eight more than the second-place player, running back Jay Ajayi.

PFF already shared how Johnson created 27 missed tackles in the passing game, more than any other running back and more than anyone else in the league other than Odell Beckham.

Essentially what we learn from the two stats combined — his 27 forced missed tackles in the passing game and 44 in the running game (using some simple math), he is perhaps the most difficult player in the NFL to bring down, which would make him one of the most feared offensive players in the open field.

Here’s hoping for a similar 2017 for Johnson.
