AJ Dillon News
Wednesday, March 18, 9:35 AM
The Carolina Panthers are signing former Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles running back AJ Dillon to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Schultz also mentions that Dillon is in incredible shape. He will help make up for the loss of Rico Dowdle in free agency and will join Chuba Hubbard. The 27-year-old missed all of the 2024 season due to injury and only played in seven games in 2025 in his lone season with the Eagles, seeing just 12 rushing attempts for 60 yards and catching all three of his targets for 21 yards. Dillon isn't guaranteed a key backup role behind Hubbard in Carolina just because he's in good shape. The veteran RB will be battling for playing time this offseason with the likes of Jonathon Brooks and Trevor Etienne. The former second-rounder in 2020 out of Boston College has 4.1 yards per carry in his five NFL seasons to go with 2,488 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns in 67 games (11 starts).

Sean Tucker News
Friday, September 11, 9:49 AM
After returning to practice as a limited participant on Thursday, Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles told reporters on Friday that running back Sean Tucker (hamstring) will be listed as doubtful for Sunday's season opener against the Bengals. Tucker recently agreed to a reworked deal to stick with the Buccaneers for his fourth season, but a hamstring injury that occurred late in training camp now threatens his Week 1 availability. After leading the team with seven rushing touchdowns in 2025, Tucker was in play for a goal-line role despite a return to health from Bucky Irving and the free-agent acquisition of veteran Kenny Gainwell. With Tucker unlikely to suit up on Sunday, Irving should see a usage bump and now ranks as RotoBaller's RB20 for Week 1.
