  Seahawks | Kenneth Walker hopes to return    Fri Feb 6, 04:34 PM

Seattle Seahawks impending free-agent RB Kenneth Walker III said he would like to re-sign with the Seahawks this offseason.

Footballguys view: If Walker hits free agency, there will be many teams lined up for his services (Broncos?). He's a powerful player who can be trusted as a three-down back. There's an outside chance that Walker wins Super Bowl MVP if the Seahawks lean on the rushing attack to soften up the Patriots on Sunday.

  49ers | Workload an issue for Christian McCaffrey?    Fri Feb 6, 11:24 AM

San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey eclipsed 2,000 yards from scrimmage for the third time in his career in 2025, and in the seasons after his previous two 2,000-yard campaigns, he played in a combined seven games. 'You've got to be ready to play in the games as much as possible,' McCaffrey said. 'I'll do whatever it takes for this team.'

Footballguys view: There's always a concern about McCaffrey being able to stay healthy. He runs hard and plays with a fire that few can match. That style (and his large workload) leads to a lot of hits. We'll see what he can do next year with a sizable role, but Fantasy GMs who draft McCaffrey are already conditioned to be ready for him to miss time.

  Dolphins | De'Von Achane more productive at home    Thu Feb 5, 07:23 PM

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane rushed for 916 yards and seven touchdowns at home during the 2025 regular season. He rushed for 434 yards and one touchdown during road games.

Footballguys view: The Dolphins were a much better team at home, which backs up the idea that Mike McDaniel built a "warm weather" team. There's no colder place to play in the NFL than Green Bay, which is where new head coach Jeff Hafley is coming from. New Dolphins offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik was on last year's staff and has spent many years on the same staff as McDaniel in San Francisco, so there should be continuity, but it can't be an upgrade. Hopefully Hafley's cold weather background can help balance out these splits in 2026.

  Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson joins rare group    Thu Feb 5, 10:26 AM

New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson became the second player in NFL history to have two games with multiple 50-yard rushing touchdowns in his career, joining retired RB Chris Johnson.

Footballguys view: Unfortunately, that's about where the highlight reel ends for Henderson's rookie season - at least as of right now. He barely saw the field in the AFC title game and the Patriots probably won't play him much in the Super Bowl to avoid exposing his subpar pass blocking to the Seahawks pass rush. Henderson's debut season was more flash than substance.

  Dolphins | De'Von Achane successful after contact    Sun Feb 1, 12:37 PM

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane recorded 719 rushing yards after contact during the 2025 regular season, which ranked third in the NFL in that category.

Footballguys view: As SI.com suggested, Achane was basically the entire Dolphins offense at different points this season. His ability to break tackles made it a lot easier for him to eclipse 1,000 rushing yards for the first time, and it kept the Dolphins' offense on schedule. Miami's running game became its identity about halfway through the season, and Achane, who finished the season as RB3 in fantasy, was the reason why. Even with a new GM, head coach, and playcaller, expecting Achane to remain the most fantasy-relevant piece in this offense is not a reach.

  Cowboys | Javonte Williams able to break tackles    Sun Feb 1, 12:09 PM

Dallas Cowboys RB Javonte Williams recorded 25 broken tackles during the 2025 regular season, which ranked second in the NFL in that category.

Footballguys view: Signed to a one-year deal after spending four years with the Denver Broncos, Williams had fewer than four yards per attempt the past two years in the league. But Williams excelled in the Cowboys' zone running scheme. He finished with 1,201 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground while averaging 4.8 yards per attempt en route to an RB9 finish in fantasy. Now, the Cowboys have to decide if they're going to bring him back as an unrestricted free agent or allow him to hit the open market.

  Lions | Jahmyr Gibbs found running room before contact    Sun Feb 1, 11:02 AM

Detroit Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs recorded 819 rushing yards before contact this season, which ranked third in the NFL in that category.

Footballguys view: That's obviously a plus, but since being selected 12th overall in the 2023 NFL Draft, Gibbs has done exactly what the Lions envisioned -- and more. Over his first three NFL seasons, Gibbs has averaged 5.3 yards per carry, scored 13 touchdowns per season, and become a matchup nightmare as both a runner and receiver. He's solidified himself as a cornerstone of Detroit's offense, and that's not going to change in 2026, even with a change of offensive coordinators. Gibbs, who finished as RB4 in 2025, will be locked in as a top pick this summer.

  Panthers | Rico Dowdle may not return    Sat Jan 31, 01:54 PM

Carolina Panthers impending free-agent RB Rico Dowdle may not return to the team next season since he likely will ask for a high salary this offseason, and the team already has RB Chuba Hubbard and Jonathon Brooks on the roster, in the opinion of ESPN.com's David Newton.

Footballguys view: Dowdle is one of the best backs available in free agency, and it seems unlikely he would take a hometown discount to stay with the Panthers. Coming off back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons on the ground, Dowdle may be playing on his third team in three years in 2026. We'll see how much interest RB-needy teams have in Dowdle later this offseason. He's an RB2 for Fantasy GMs in the right landing spot.

  Jets | Tag possible for Breece Hall    Sat Jan 31, 01:42 PM

New York Jets impending free-agent RB Breece Hall may be a candidate for either the franchise tag or transition tag this offseason if the two sides are not able to reach an agreement on a new contract, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Rich Cimini.

Footballguys view: Hall is arguably the best running back available in free agency this offseason. We could see several teams vying for his services if the Jets don't tag him. A franchise tag has a projected value at $14.1 million for a one-year deal. The Jets could tag him and then get until mid-July to work out a long-term contract. If they lose Hall in free agency, the Jets would be searching for a new lead back (among many other things).

  Bengals | Cincinnati, Chase Brown working on an extension    Thu Jan 29, 02:54 PM

Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown and his reps are 'working hard' on an extension.

Footballguys view: Browns 2025 season started slowly, but he exploded in the second half of the year and finished with his first 1,000-yard rushing season of his career. Add in his 69 catches and you can see how impactful Brown is on the Bengals' offense. With Joe Burrow back in action in 2026, Brown can continue to be the primary back on an explosive offense.

  NFL | Mike Washington Jr. continues impressing    Thu Jan 29, 12:48 PM

Arkansas RB Mike Washington Jr. continued impressing at Senior Bowl practices Wednesday, Jan. 28. He had a few of those runs where he exhibited quick, downhill cuts that sprung long gains on outside runs. He also made explosive plays as a pass catcher in one-on-one drills.

Footballguys view: Washington is a big back (228 pounds) and is a bell-cow back who can take on a large workload. In addition to size and contact balance, Washington can be relied on as a receiver out of the backfield. Early projections have Washington going off the board in the mid-rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft.

  Jaguars | Tag unlikely for Travis Etienne    Mon Jan 26, 03:56 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars impending free-agent RB Travis Etienne is unlikely to be a candidate for the franchise tag this offseason, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Michael DiRocco.

Footballguys view: Etienne is coming off his third 1,000-yard rushing season and posted 13 total touchdowns. He turned out to be a good fit in coach Liam Coen's offense, improved as a pass blocker, and was the team's most consistent offensive player. Still, the estimated franchise tag for a running back in 2026 (per OverTheCap.com) would be $14.153 million, which would make Etienne the fourth-highest-paid running back in terms of annual salary. The presence of 2025 draft picks Bhayshul Tuten and LeQuint Allen Jr. will be part of the equation for Jacksonville. We'll be watching for more.

  Broncos | J.K. Dobbins hopes to return    Mon Jan 26, 01:54 PM

Denver Broncos impending free-agent RB J.K. Dobbins said he hopes to re-sign with the Broncos this offseason. He said he would have been ready to play if the Broncos advanced to Super Bowl LX.

Footballguys view: The 27-year-old is coming off a 772-yard rushing performance across 10 games, with four touchdowns. While Dobbins didn't reach 1,000 yards or finish the year, his 77.2 yards per game was the best of his career by a wide margin. As The Sporting News noted, Dobbins has dealt with injuries his entire career, but as seen this past season, when behind a great offensive line, he can be a star running back. Re-signing Dobbins won't cost much and would be a high-quality move for the Broncos and George Paton this offseason.

  Seahawks | Seattle outlasts Rams to clinch Super Bowl spot    Sun Jan 25, 10:11 PM

Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold completed 25 of his 36 passes for 346 yards and three touchdowns and gained nine rushing yards on three carries in a 31-27 win over the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship Game. RB Kenneth Walker III rushed 19 times for 62 yards and a touchdown and caught four passes for 49 yards, and RB George Holani served as the backup, rushing three times for four yards and gaining 27 yards on three receptions. Jaxon Smith-Njigba was Darnold's top target, catching 10 of his 12 targets for 153 yards and a touchdown. WR Cooper Kupp chipped in four receptions for 36 yards and a score, and WR Rashid Shaheed's lone catch went for 51 yards. TE AJ Barner finished with two catches for 13 yards, and WR Jake Bobo hauled in a 17-yard touchdown. LB Ernest Jones led the way for the defense, finishing with a team-high 8 tackles, including six solo stops. DL DeMarcus Lawrence recorded Seattle's only sack, and CB Riq Woolen broke up a pair of passes.

Footballguys view: Though the Seahawks' vaunted defense was solid, it was the play of Darnold and Smith-Njigba that carried the day. It was fitting that Darnold starred in this one after leading Seattle to a 14-3 record and the NFC's No. 1 seed during the regular season. Still, there were questions about his big-game ability. But now, Darnold has Seattle in the biggest game of all in a season that did not begin with Super Bowl expectations. The Seahawks will face the New England Patriots in a rematch of Super Bowl XLIX.

  Rams | Rams come up just short of Super Bowl    Sun Jan 25, 10:01 PM

Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford completed 22 of his 35 passes for 374 yards and three touchdowns and gained 16 rushing yards on two carries in a 31-27 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game. RB Blake Corum gained a team-high 55 rushing yards on nine carries and caught three passes for 24 yards, and RB Kyren Williams rushed 10 times for 39 yards and had two receptions for 22 yards and a touchdown. WR Puka Nacua was open early and often, catching nine passes for 165 yards and a touchdown, and WR Davante Adams hauled in four passes for 89 yards and a score. TE Colby Parkinson finished with 62 receiving yards on three receptions, and TE Tyler Higbee caught his only target for 12 yards. LB Omar Speights recorded a team-high 11 tackles, including seven solo stops, and S Kamren Kinchens, DE Jared Verse and DL Braden Fiske all recorded a sack.

Footballguys view: The Rams outgained the Seahawks 479 to 396, but Seattle was 4-of-5 in the red zone and had the only takeaway. The Rams were only 1-for-8 on third down. Stafford, who is a finalist for NFL MVP, threw a 9-yard touchdown to Williams, a 2-yarder to Davante Adams, and a 34-yarder to Nacua, who was named a finalist for the AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award. Beyond that, even if head coach Sean McVay loses an assistant or two in the current hiring cycle, the Rams are well-positioned for continued success in 2026.

  Broncos | Denver sees playoff run end    Sun Jan 25, 06:12 PM

Denver Broncos QB Jarrett Stidham went 17-for-31 for 133 yards, one touchdown and one interception against the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship game. Stidham also rushed for 23 yards on four carries but did lose a fumble. RB RJ Harvey rushed for 37 yards on 13 carries and also caught four passes for 22 yards on six targets. RB Jaleel McLaughlin rushed for 11 yards on four carries and caught one pass for two yards on two targets. WR Marvin Mims caught four passes for 62 yards on six targets. TE Evan Engram caught two passes for 19 yards on three targets, WR Courtland Sutton caught three passes for 17 yards and one touchdown on five targets, WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey caught one pass for five yards on three targets and WR Pat Bryant (hamstring) caught one pass for two yards on one target before leaving because of a hamstring injury. LB Alex Singleton recorded four solo tackles and 12 total tackles during the game, while DT D.J. Jones recorded two solo tackles, six total tackles and one and a half sacks.

Footballguys view: Stidham completed a 52-yard bomb to Marvin Mims on the game's opening drive and finished the drive with a touchdown pass to Courtland Sutton, but had only one good drive for the rest of the game. That drive ended with a failed fourth and one play inside the Patriots 20, and Wil Lutz missed a 54-yard field goal near the end of the first half and a 46-yard attempt to tie the game was blocked by Leonard Taylor III. Denver's offense just needed to be a little bit better, but their defense was championship quality.

  Patriots | New England to play in another Super Bowl    Sun Jan 25, 05:42 PM

New England Patriots QB Drake Maye went 10-for-21 for 86 yards, zero touchdowns and zero interceptions against the Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship game. Maye also rushed for 65 yards and one touchdown on 10 carries. RB Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for 71 yards on 25 carries, while RB TreVeyon Henderson rushed for five yards on three carries. WR Mack Hollins caught two passes for 51 yards on two targets, WR Stefon Diggs caught five passes for 17 yards on six targets, TE Hunter Henry caught two passes for 12 yards on three targets and WR Kayshon Boutte caught one pass for six yards on six targets.

Footballguys view: The Broncos defense was up to the task, as the only touchdown they allowed was off of a Jarrett Stidham turnover deep in his own territory. Drake Maye was more dangerous as a runner than a passer, and the Broncos shut down the predictable Patriots running game. The Patriots still advanced thanks to their defense and a second half field goal drive that broke a 7-7 tie. New England will have two weeks to prepare as a Super Bowl underdog after pulling off a stunning turnaround under first year head coach Mike Vrabel.
