Offensive setup question?

I'm no expert based by my questions.

Could we run two tight ends with Jeanty in the slot and a blocking back/full back to in the backfield to block for the QB?

And is it legal to put a guard in as a running back to use as an additional blocker for the QB instead of a running back/fullback?.

You can see my mindset is to protect the QB as much as possible and use out best TE weapons in the offense as well as use Jeanty as a passing weapon who could do sweeps etc from that position..

What's everyone's thoughts on this? Stupid, doable? Tired of seeing Geno with no time and getting whacked all day long.

Player numbers used to mean position adherence *( ie end, backfield eligible, etc.) Don't know if it applies anymore to some positions. Do know50, 60, and 70 have to report as eligible when lining up in a receiver position.

Geno does face some pressure but he also holds the ball too long. Yes you can basically put any player anywhere you want but they have to report as such.

Think you've got a couple words reversed in your sentence.
