Kaleb Johnson a Cut Candidate in Dynasty Leagues?

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson had an incredibly disheartening rookie season in 2025, tallying just 69 rushing yards and nine receiving yards. He was a healthy scratch seven times, and he didn't register a single return on special teams after Week 2. The Iowa product quickly became a non-factor on the Steelers' roster, which […]

The Denver Broncos agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday to re-sign running back Jaleel McLaughlin, a source told Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post.

Ashton Jeanty Primed for Year 2 Breakout Behind Improved Offensive Line?

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty finished as the RB13 in his rookie season, despite being first contacted less than 0.7 yards beyond the line of scrimmage on average.

Saints running back Devin Neal was a popular late-season waiver pickup in 2025 when injuries pushed him into a starting role from Weeks 13 through 15, but with New Orleans' signing of Travis Etienne Jr. to a four-year deal, he has to be viewed as one of fantasy's biggest fallers in the opening week of […]

Fantasy Football Breakout Running Backs: Top RBs to Target in 2026 Drafts

Trey Benson's Upside Limited in Crowded Backfield

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) seemed like an intriguing buy-low candidate in fantasy football entering this offseason, but his upside has been squandered following the Cardinals' backfield roster moves so far in free agency.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt Currently the Lead Back in Washington

Washington Commanders running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt currently sits atop the depth chart as the new league year gets underway.

That could change via free agency, the NFL Draft, or even a trade, […]
