Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (shoulder) is a full-go for the start of training camp, head coach Jeff Hafley told Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post. A shoulder injury popped up for Achane early on during offseason workouts, which led to him being limited during mandatory minicamp last month. The new front office […]

After touching the ball an astounding 450 times in 2025, much of the offseason narrative surrounding San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey has been about how the team will handle his workload in his age-30 season, and through two days of training camp, there have been no indications of any holding him back. After […]

One draft strategy I hear often is to make sure you draft “Your Guys.” In the small chance you don’t know what “Your Guys” or “My Guy” are, they are the players that you are especially high on and are willing to target more aggressively than consensus. In layman’s terms, players you may reach for […]

The investigation into Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs is "still open," the Brown County District Attorney's Office told Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Jacobs was arrested in Wisconsin and jailed in late May on five charges related to domestic abuse. He was released from jail the following day because there was insufficient evidence […]

27-year-old running back out of Alabama, Najee Harris, tore his Achilles early in the 2025 season after he was signed to a one-year deal by the Los Angeles Chargers.

Pittsburgh Steelers 27-year-old running back out of Oklahoma State, Jaylen Warren, finds himself in another timeshare backfield in 2026, even after the Steelers moved on from Kenny Gainwell and brought in 28-year-old Rico Dowdle. Warren finished the 2025 season as the RB16, with 211 carries for 958 rushing yards and six touchdowns. He contributed through […]

The Seattle Seahawks plan to waive injured running back Kenny McIntosh (knee), sources told Brady Henderson of ESPN.

McIntosh didn't […]

The Green Bay Packers placed running back Chris Brooks (undisclosed) on the Non-Football Injury list on Monday for the start of training camp, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. It's a bad start for Brooks this summer as he looks to compete for a backup role with MarShawn Lloyd behind starter Josh Jacobs, but […]

Arizona Cardinals offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett praised running back James Conner when asked whether the team currently has a starter, but he stopped short of naming an RB1. Hackett said he was excited for Conner to get on the field and show what he can do before praising the entire running back room. Conner is […]

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani has been first through Thomas Hammock's position drills and has handled most of the first-team backfield work through two training camp practices, according to The News Tribune. First-round rookie Jadarian Price has also rotated into the starting offense, so Holani's early placement does not make him the established starter. […]

Former Pro Bowl running back Miles Sanders (knee) worked out for the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Sanders is currently a free agent but is fully cleared from a knee injury that required surgery and cut his season short last year with the Dallas Cowboys. The 29-year-old former […]

July's coming to a close, which means the whole RotoBaller family is in full swing for fantasy football. Let's go! Some may say it's the most wonderful time of the year -- except, of course, when the influx of normies starts to destroy our favorite ADP values. The term sleeper has become a bit taboo […]

There is always some value to find at the running back position in the middle rounds. Whether you are looking for a high-upside running back or a serviceable RB2 after the first few rounds, there are always running backs who emerge as sleepers. Last year, Javonte Williams, Jaylen Warren, Quinshon Judkins, and Travis Etienne Jr. […]

Running backs are perhaps the most important position to nail in fantasy drafts. Elite options are scarce, and the best backs are very consistent, providing your fantasy team with much less volatility than wide receivers. A strong running back stable can make or break your season. Given the scarcity of solid options at the position, […]

It can be hard to move on from players who have served dynasty fantasy managers well for a long period of time. We regularly see veterans continue to produce meaningful numbers season-long or at least have a few good games that remind us of the upside they once had. But depending on your bench size, […]

No fantasy football leagues are won because of which players fantasy managers draft in the first, second, or third rounds. Championships are won because of the golden gems drafted in the late rounds -- and I am not talking about kickers. It is easy for fantasy footballers to draft the likes of Atlanta’s Bijan Robinson, […]

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Jadarian Price is seeing a heavy workload in training camp practices so far, per Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News Tribune. The 32nd overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Price could be in line for a significant role in the Seahawks' offense right away. Seattle lost star running back […]

Arizona Cardinals running back Tyler Allgeier was working with the first-team offense in training camp practice on Sunday, per Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. Mackie reports that both Allgeier and 2026 first-round running back Jeremiyah Love were trading off series with the Cardinals' starters, but that Allgeier got the first series. The Cardinals drafted […]

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan James was "clearly the RB2 behind Christian McCaffrey" in the team's training camp practice on Sunday, per Brad Graham of TheSFNiners.com. A fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, James did not record a single carry in his rookie season. Still, the 49ers enter training camp with a void […]

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill is healthy again and remains the clear change-of-pace option behind Derrick Henry. A neck injury ended his 2025 season after 10 games, but Hill looked fully recovered during offseason practices. Before going down, he caught 21 passes for 169 yards and a touchdown while adding 93 yards and two […]

Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White still has a place on win-now dynasty rosters, even if this backfield never gives him a traditional lead role. White finished 2025 with 572 yards and four touchdowns on 132 carries, then added 40 catches for 218 yards. The receiving work has always been the draw. He has 205 […]

The San Francisco 49ers placed running back Isaac Guerendo (pectoral) on the Physically Unable to Perform list to start training camp on Saturday, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports. Guerendo is not ready to practice with the team after suffering a torn pectoral muscle while lifting weights in the offseason. The 26-year-old former fourth-rounder […]

Carolina Panthers running back Trevor Etienne remains a long shot for useful redraft work after barely touching the offense as a rookie. He appeared in all 17 games, but 20 carries for 94 yards and three catches for 13 yards were the extent of his production. Special teams kept him active. It did not move […]

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said on Sunday that he doesn't think head coach Kyle Shanahan's injuries suffered in a recent car accident will prevent him from coaching the Sept. 10 regular-season opener against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in Melbourne, Australia, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. "That's not what we're anticipating," […]
