Brian Robinson Jr. Remains a Valuable Dynasty Handcuff Option Entering 2026

Saturday, June 13, 12:31 PM

After recording 92 carries for 400 yards and two touchdowns across 17 games with the San Francisco 49ers in 2025, veteran running back Brian Robinson Jr. is entering his first season with the Atlanta Falcons in 2026. Robinson Jr. offered little standalone appeal to fantasy managers last season, as he spent the year in a backup role behind 49ers superstar Christian McCaffrey. Ironically, Robinson Jr. finds himself in a very similar situation in Atlanta behind Falcons back Bijan Robinson. There may be slightly more opportunity available to Robinson Jr. this season, as former Falcons back Tyler Allgeier collected eight touchdowns while playing alongside Bijan in 2025. Still, his greatest value to fantasy managers is as a handcuff option. Should Robinson suffer an injury, Robinson Jr. would profile as the clear lead back in Atlanta. He remains stash-worthy in dynasty formats entering 2026.

Braelon Allen is Getting Bigger and Stronger

Wednesday, June 10, 5:49 PM

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen has been working hard this offseason. Allen says that he's bigger and stronger than ever before. Allen is currently up to 250 pounds, which is up from 238-240 that he was at last season. He continued by saying that his body fat percentage is at an all-time low. Allen is looking to rebound after having surgery to repair an MCL injury he suffered in Week 4 of last season. If everything goes right, Allen should take on the role of the backup running back to Breece Hall. There's some stash value here if Allen is truly ready to take his game to the next level.
