Brian Robinson Jr. News
Tuesday, March 10, 12:56 PM
The San Francisco 49ers have interest in re-signing running back Brian Robinson Jr., according to Vic Tafur and Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Robinson had a solid season in the Bay Area as the backup behind Christian McCaffrey in his first year with the team in 2025, even though he had a career-low 400 rushing yards and only two touchdowns on 92 carries over 17 regular-season games. In his first three NFL campaigns with the Washington Commanders, the 26-year-old former third-round pick out of Alabama had at least 733 rushing yards out of the backfield. B-Rob's best chance for a rebound in fantasy would be to sign elsewhere, but another injury to CMC would also thrust Robinson into a significant backfield role in one of the better offenses in the league if he re-signs. Robinson didn't have over 10 carries in a single game last year with McCaffrey staying healthy all year.

Jahmyr Gibbs News
Monday, March 2, 6:26 AM
Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs already entered this offseason atop the depth chart. Now, he essentially has the backfield all to himself after the Lions traded veteran running back David Montgomery to the Houston Texans. Gibbs played exactly 67% of the Lions' snaps last season, while Montgomery played 37.1%. A significant portion of the veteran's vacated snaps and touches will go to Gibbs, who has consistently impressed as a ball-carrier and receiver. He was the overall RB1 in full-PPR leagues in 2024, and he finished 2025 as the overall RB3. Through 17 games last season, he tallied 1,223 rushing yards, 77 catches, 616 receiving yards, and 18 total touchdowns. We would expect the Lions to sign or draft another running back who can offer a decent change of pace behind or alongside Gibbs, but there's a strong chance it won't be anyone of Montgomery's caliber. Therefore, this trade is great news for Gibbs, who is once again trending up. The young running back has a chance to be the overall RB1 in fantasy football leagues during 2026.
