Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane should be the primary playmaker on offense this season. Miami parted ways with Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Tua Tagovailoa during the offseason, leaving Achane as the only returner from an offense that has featured some star power in recent years, despite underperforming. Miami also ushered in this fresh […]

Baltimore Ravens running back Adam Randall (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve ahead of Sunday's 53-man roster deadline. The rookie had 17 carries, 71 rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown across two preseason games, and he also caught four passes for an additional 47 receiving yards. We don't know exactly what ailment Randall is dealing […]

The Carolina Panthers placed running back Trevor Etienne (ankle) on injured reserve ahead of Sunday's 53-man roster deadline. Etienne will occupy one of the two IR spots for players who are designated to return later in the season. The team can activate him in Week 5 or later, and when they do so, he'll count […]

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani should carve out a role early in the season after Zach Charbonnet (knee) was placed on the PUP list. Rookie Jadarian Price projects as the Seahawks' No. 1 running back to open the year, but Holani will likely earn a significant snap share, too. Price never averaged more than […]

The New Orleans Saints have placed running back Devin Neal (hamstring) on season-ending injured reserve, according to Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. He suffered the injury during Week 2 of the preseason. Neal had an impressive stretch of games from Week 12 through Week 15 during his rookie season in 2025, but there wouldn't have been […]

Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price sits atop the depth chart heading into the regular season. The Seahawks placed Zach Charbonnet (knee) on the PUP list on Sunday, which means he'll miss at least the first four games. That leaves Price as the strongest candidate to operate as the No. 1 back, ahead of teammates […]

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) has been placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. He'll miss at least four games. This move was widely expected, as Charbonnet is working his way back from an ACL tear that he suffered during last year's playoffs. He could end […]

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (ankle) was not placed on injured reserve prior to the 53-man roster deadline on Sunday, according to Sam Warren of The Athletic. Given that an IR stint carries a minimum four-game absence, the Raiders' decision to keep Jeanty on their 53-man roster suggests that he'll be able to […]

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (foot) has been placed on injured reserve, according to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7. Conner has been designated to return later in the season, which means he can rejoin the 53-man roster as early as Week 5. Conner was the overall RB11 with nine touchdowns in 2024, and […]

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo (pectoral) has been placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. He will now miss at least four games, keeping him sidelined through the entire month of September. At the earliest, he can return in Week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks on […]

The 2026 season is quickly approaching as fantasy managers gear up for their drafts. While most managers focus on early-round players and maybe a few deep sleepers, the ones who win leagues dominate the mid-rounds. Last season, finding players like Javonte Williams, Drake Maye, and even Michael Wilson late in the season was likely a […]

The Green Bay Packers running back room has been hit with major news ahead of the start of the 2026 season.

In those articles, you'll find a deep dive on usually five or six players, explaining exactly why I'm targeting or avoiding them in 2026: Must-Have Late-Round Picks Must-Have Mid-Round Picks Must-Have Early-Round Picks WR Breakouts […]

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams appears poised to remain in the workhorse role following the team's latest batch of cuts. Dallas cut running backs Jaydon Blue, Phil Mafah, and Israel Abanikanda on Sunday, leaving the Cowboys with a backfield of just Williams and Malik Davis. We saw Dallas carry just two running backs into […]

Everyone has their favorite approach to drafting their teams in this wonderful game of fantasy football. The fact that each year is so different makes it even more challenging (and fun) to get into it. The expansion of types of games and league sizes, and community efforts like the Scott Fish Bowl and the Fantasy […]

Dallas Cowboys running back Malik Davis came out of Sunday's cuts with a much cleaner path behind Javonte Williams. Dallas waived both Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah, two backs who had spent the summer competing with Davis for the No. 2 job. The timing matters because Davis was already pulling ahead before either move. Jon […]

Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd went from an interesting late-round stash to a potential Week 1 starter in a matter of hours. The NFL placed Josh Jacobs on the Commissioner's Exempt List on Sunday, which means he cannot practice or attend games while he remains there. Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports that […]

The Dallas Cowboys are waiving running back Jaydon Blue, according to Adam Schefter. It's a surprising decision after Dallas appeared to signal that Blue was safe by holding him out of Friday's preseason finale along with Javonte Williams and Malik Davis. The 2025 fifth-round pick had also put together a solid August, rushing for 94 […]

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has been at the center of much of the fantasy football discussion over the past several weeks. Not only is the veteran running back battling a groin injury, but he is also dealing with a looming suspension. Will Jacobs play in Week 1? Will he miss extended time […]

The New Orleans Saints are releasing running back Zamir White, according to Mike Triplett. New Orleans acquired White from San Francisco only six days ago, sending linebacker Deion Jones to the 49ers while the Saints were dealing with injuries throughout the backfield. White did get one preseason game with his new team and made something […]

The Dallas Cowboys are waiving running back Phil Mafah, according to Jeremy Fowler. Dallas selected Mafah 239th overall in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, but injuries limited his rookie season to one game. He carried five times for 18 yards and a touchdown in that appearance while adding two catches for 11 […]

We've all heard the same old time-tested fantasy adages before -- "Draft your guys," "Just pick good players on good teams," and my personal favorite, "ADP is comprised mostly by losers." While these macro strategies will generally set you on the right path directionally, not nearly enough focus goes toward a positive start. It's important […]
