Miami Dolphins fullback Alec Ingold, dubbed 'The Hit Man' by teammates, plays a pivotal role in the team's run game. Despite having limited offensive stats with 18 carries for 25 yards in three seasons, his blocking is vital for the Dolphins' success. Coach Mike McDaniel emphasized Ingold's impact on run blocking, describing him as the 'ultimate point guard for the offensive line.' Ingold's absence due to injury last season contributed to the Dolphins' rushing struggles, which ranked 21st in the league.
Ingold, who has 18 carries for 25 yards and two touchdowns in three seasons with the Dolphins, is essential for the run game's success, possibly as essential as running back De'Von Achane or former running back Raheem Mostert.
That's why we call him 'The Hit Man,' said quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, highlighting Ingold's physicality and crucial role in the Dolphins' run game.
Simply put, a fullback in the run game for offenses is the ultimate point guard for the offensive line, helping their angles and their leverage and their ability to block talented athletes," McDaniel said.
Alec Ingold makes a block, and when he comes from the backfield... half the team adjacent to him has better angles at their blocks, said coach Mike McDaniel.
