Anybody create a running FB that runs from the FB back position and/or kick off?

Along with the S* (new meta) HB the GE will create for Academy next season, accompanying him will be a running FB who will return kicks and run out of the FB position in goalline formation. Has anybody had success with a FB returning kicks and/or running out of goalline? I'm not talking about putting a S* FB at HB like garbage truck. I'm talking regular FB.

Huh? Doesn't garbage truck run from fb?

I thought his runs were all from FB. I was look at this the other day.

Really? Huh...I thought he played at HB. Does he ever run from goalline?

FB Garbage Truck runs from FB. The FB runs suck compared to HB runs for a few reasons: some legit, some not.

On LogZilla, I have a FB returning kicks. Both KR and PR.

And no, I don't run out of Goal Line.

This is so laughable...GE legit thinks he is the first to try things

Deevee used to run his fb from gl. Don't believe the results were all that great.

You can average 3-3.5 yards if your lucky. Goal line? TFL bait

Nope, I retired him. A good HB running game needs a solid blocking FB to work. Some FB screens are nice. One or two FB runs are passable for average HB runs. I will try again soon with a S* just for the sweet sweet achievements.

We'll have a blocking FB to play on normal formation. The running FB will be returner and FB in goalline.

1. FB is cheaper than a 2nd HB
2. The only defense that consistently kills my goalline attack is AA's. FB dive should slice through it like butter.

I'm piling up quite a few achievements with GT.

I thought so. There are sooooo many offensive FB achievements.

Well from FB you can get away with lower mobility since the travel distance is shorter and mostly all running will be downhill - but you also have to account for either the need to boost up blocking skills so he isn't a liability there (and probably run a mid-speed power monster behind him so the lower speed doesn't kill his ability to get to the block) or deal with having a gaping hole there for the offensive blocking.

But if I only use him in kick/punt return and goalline, his blocking skills won't be needed, except for the very few times I run HB off tackle out of goalline. I would only do this to have a different play out of goalline.
