Who Should I Start? Craig Reynolds or Sincere McCormick

Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds led his team in rushing yards during the team's 34-7 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday night. Reynolds finished with 10 carries for 38 yards and one touchdown as a rusher, adding one catch for 10 yards as a receiver. The 29-year-old running back is entering his seventh NFL season and has been with Detroit since 2021. In 34 games for the Lions since the start of 2023, Reynolds has logged 72 carries for 318 yards and one touchdown. He appears to be fairly locked into the RB3 role in Detroit behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Reynolds would need an injury to one of those two backs to be relevant in fantasy, and even then, he would likely be a fringe flex option at best.

The Denver Broncos are signing free-agent running back Sincere McCormick to their practice squad on Monday, according to Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. McCormick will give the first-place Broncos some additional depth behind rookie RJ Harvey, Jaleel McLaughlin, and Tyler Badie with J.K. Dobbins (foot) out for the rest of the regular season. The 25-year-old has not played at all in 2025 but had 183 rushing yards on 39 carries (4.7 yards per tote) in five games (two starts) for the Las Vegas Raiders last year. McCormick was with the Arizona Cardinals' practice squad earlier this year but was cut last week to land back on the open market. McCormick will be a long shot for any fantasy value to close out the 2025 campaign.
