Breece Hall News
Sunday, April 19, 10:59 AM
Despite having an atrocious supporting cast around him for most of the 2025 season, New York Jets running back Breece Hall still managed to record 1,415 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 279 touches across 16 games. The Jets signed Hall to the franchise tag earlier this offseason, and the two sides have yet to work out a long-term extension. While New York could easily still extend Hall at some point before the start of 2026, the 24-year-old's dynasty value would almost certainly benefit from a change of scenery. Hall has proven he can be productive regardless of the situation around him, but his upside is unquestionably limited with the Jets. New York's offense should be more stable with veteran quarterback Geno Smith under center in 2026. Still, the Jets likely remain at least a year or two away from fielding a high-level unit. Hall may struggle to reach his full dynasty potential without a chance to hit the open market.

Kaleb Johnson News
Wednesday, April 1, 10:16 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson will be given opportunities to establish himself as a key part of the team's offense in 2026, according to head coach Mike McCarthy. "I am aware of their past experiences, but this is like a Catholic operation, and you say three Hail Marys and everybody has a clean slate and let's get to work," McCarthy said regarding Johnson (via Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com). The veteran head coach also explained that he's going to "challenge [Johnson] to be a three-down player and a special teamer" going forward. The former third-round pick mostly played on special teams as a rookie last year, amassing just 29 touches and 78 scrimmage yards on offense. The Steelers already have Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle in their backfield, but it sounds like Johnson will have an opportunity to prove that he deserves more touches in Year 2. Dynasty managers in deeper leagues should hold Johnson for now. In shallower leagues, it's perfectly appropriate to drop him, despite McCarthy's optimistic comments.
