Cordarrelle Patterson News
Monday, July 28, 2:17 PM
The Pittsburgh Steelers have released running back Cordarrelle Patterson, according to a tweet from Patterson himself on Monday morning. The 34-year-old appeared to be fifth on the team's depth chart at running back behind Jaylen Warren, Kaleb Johnson, Kenneth Gainwell, and Trey Sermon, so this news does not come as a huge surprise. Patterson appeared in 13 games for Pittsburgh in 2024, rushing for 135 yards on 32 carries and catching 12 passes for 80 yards. He also served as a kick returner, which is where Patterson has arguably made the biggest impact throughout his career. It remains to be seen whether the 12-year vet will look to catch on with another team as a gadget piece on offense and contributor on special teams, or hang up his cleats. Either way, his days as a fantasy-relevant player are in the past.

MarShawn Lloyd News
Tuesday, May 26, 5:26 PM
Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd could see his short-term fantasy value soar going into drafts this summer after the news broke on Tuesday that starting RB Josh Jacobs has been arrested and booked into jail on five charges, including domestic abuse. Lloyd has been a bust so far in his NFL career after the Packers selected him in the third round of the 2024 draft out of USC. Due to injuries, the 25-year-old has played in just one game in Green Bay back in his rookie campaign. But with Jacobs now potentially facing a lengthy suspension to begin the 2026 season, depending on how the legal process plays out, both Lloyd and Chris Brooks could be elevated to much bigger roles in the Packers' backfield. RotoBaller currently has Lloyd ranked as the No. 76 RB in half-PPR formats for the 2026 season, but his ranking could rise dramatically if Jacobs is eventually suspended by the NFL. Stay tuned for more on this situation and how it might affect the Packers' RB pecking order.
