Patriots Release Antonio Gibson

Monday, February 23, 11:28 AM

The New England Patriots released running back Antonio Gibson (knee) on Monday, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. Gibson had a lost season in 2025 with New England, suffering a season-ending torn ACL in Week 5. The 27-year-old finished with a career-low 25 carries for 106 yards and one touchdown in his five games last year in his second season with the Pats. He'll head to the open market this offseason, most likely searching for a depth role in the backfield. Gibson's lone 1,000-yard season in the NFL came in his second year in the league in 2021 with the Washington Commanders. Since his first two years in the league, Gibson has struggled to be productive, gaining a total of 1,455 yards on the ground and six rushing touchdowns on 359 carries over four seasons. Gibson also has experience as a return man on special teams, which will make him more attractive on the open market.

Jaylen Wright Still Worth Stashing in Deeper Dynasty Leagues

Monday, July 20, 9:25 AM

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright finally got a real workload in Week 14 last season, and the result was 107 yards and a touchdown on 24 carries against the Jets. It was also the only time his role truly opened up. Wright appeared in 10 games after a preseason knee procedure, finishing with 70 carries for 288 yards and two scores, plus five catches for 44 yards. Miami has not moved away from De'Von Achane. Quite the opposite. Achane handled 305 touches for 1,838 scrimmage yards in 2025, then signed an extension through 2030. Ollie Gordon II is still around as well, and his short-yardage work could keep this from becoming a clean one-for-one replacement situation. Wright does have the better fit for Achane's broader role if needed. That is enough to keep the 23-year-old rostered in deeper dynasty leagues. He is more valuable to Achane managers than as a standalone target, and there is little reason to expect steady redraft production without an injury ahead of him.
