Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler recently signed a one-year deal with the organization. He's back with Washington after only playing two games last season due to a torn Achilles tendon. The expectation was that Ekeler would play a depth role, but he might have a bigger impact than expected right away. Fellow back Rachaad […]

Detroit Lions running back Sione Vaki has seen little involvement in his team's offense so far in 2026, recording 75 scrimmage yards on 12 touches across three games.

Tennessee Titans Running Back Tyjae Spears took a step backward in Week 3, rushing three times for only five yards and failing to record a target against the Giants.

Despite not catching a single pass in last week's contest, Johnson […]

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots.
