Arkie, NFL.com is always a useful resource for player/team stats.

Haynes has fumbled 4 times in his whole career and failed to recover 3 of them.
He has 159 career carries, so that equated to a fumble
every 40 carries.
If we compare him to a couple of backs we should get some context for those stats.
First up - an elite back.
Edgerrin James 2188 carries 33 fumbles which works out at a fumble
every 66 carries.
Secondly, a career back-up who has a reputation for fumbling.
Kevin Faulk 607 carries and 21 fumbles which works out at a fumble
every 29 carries.
As you can see, he is not the worst of performers for a back-up - but then he has had very little work to do in his career - a couple of fumbles early next year would bring his average plummeting down.
