Breece Hall News
Monday, March 30, 6:49 PM
New York Jets general manager Darren Mougey said on Monday that he hopes to revisit contract-extension talks with franchise-tagged running back Breece Hall after the NFL draft in late April, per SNY. "Things are in a good place. I'm hopeful with Breece," Mougey said. Hall has not signed his franchise tag, but the two sides have until mid-July to work out a long-term extension. Despite a bad offense in 2025, the 24-year-old had the best year of his career with 1,065 rushing yards and four touchdowns on a career-high 243 rushing attempts over 16 games played. Hall added 36 receptions for 350 yards and another touchdown through the air. Fantasy managers in dynasty setups are hoping that Hall cannot work a long-term deal out with the Jets and he becomes a free agent again next year. For at least one more year with Gang Green, Hall will be a volume-based RB2 in what is expected to be another frustrating offensive situation with veteran QB Geno Smith running the show.

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.
