Chris Brooks News
Saturday, June 20, 11:53 AM
With running backs Chris Brooks and Emanuel Wilson both facing restricted free agency after the 2025 season, the Green Bay Packers opted to extend an offer to Brooks while allowing Wilson to depart. With the team bypassing the position in both free agency and the draft, Brooks now finds himself battling with 2024 third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd for what could become one of the most valuable insurance roles in the league. With Josh Jacobs' status up in the air following a Memorial Day weekend arrest, either could be thrust into an unexpected starting role in what has been one of the league's run-heaviest offenses in recent years. A frustrating string of injuries has limited Lloyd to only seven total touches over his two years in the league and positioned Brooks as the presumed favorite to claim the primary backup role, though it stands to reason that neither would handle anything close to the 300-carry workload that Jacobs has been given when at full health. With so much uncertainty surrounding both Jacob's legal situation and any division of labor should he miss time, both Brooks and Lloyd need to be rostered in all dynasty leagues, and at RotoBaller's RB94, Brooks is a cheap trade target and smart insurance policy for all Jacobs managers.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. News
Wednesday, June 10, 8:48 AM
A fifth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. burst onto the scene as a rookie by recording 1,123 scrimmage yards and six touchdowns on 230 touches across 17 games (12 starts). However, Tracy Jr. lost the RB1 role in New York to 2025 fourth-rounder Cam Skattebo (ankle) early last season. Skattebo (ankle) suffered a season-ending ankle injury in Week 8, which allowed Tracy Jr. to reclaim the starting role and top 1,000 scrimmage yards for the second consecutive season. Entering 2026, Skattebo is expected to be fully healthy and should reclaim the lead role in the Giants' backfield. Still, Tracy Jr. could remain a valuable player to roster for dynasty managers. The 26-year-old is a former college wide receiver who has recorded 74 catches for 572 yards on 101 targets across his first two NFL seasons, which could allow him to provide fantasy production even while playing a complementary role. Additionally, Skattebo's violent play style gives him a heightened injury risk and makes Tracy Jr. a high-end handcuff option. For the right price, Tracy Jr. could be worth buying low on entering 2026.
