Dameon Pierce News
Monday, August 31, 7:11 AM
Philadelphia Eagles running back Dameon Pierce is returning to the organization on the practice squad, according to Jeremy Fowler. The Eagles released Pierce on Sunday while setting their initial 53-man roster, but he wasn't gone for long. Philadelphia kept Saquon Barkley, Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley as its three active running backs, leaving Pierce as experienced depth behind that group. The 26-year-old has rushed for 1,684 yards and eight touchdowns across 43 NFL games, with 939 of those yards coming during his rookie season with Houston in 2022. His workload has dropped considerably since then, including just 36 rushing yards in five games split between Houston and Kansas City last season. Pierce did finish his first Eagles preseason on a good note, running four times for 44 yards against Cincinnati on Friday. He won't have an immediate fantasy role, but Philadelphia now has a veteran option already familiar with the offense if it needs another back.

Bam Knight News
Wednesday, May 27, 5:24 AM
Arizona running back Bam Knight took advantage of a depleted Cardinals depth chart in 2025, finishing as the fantasy RB24 or better in five different weeks while leading the team with four rushing touchdowns. Knight signed a one-year deal to return to Arizona this offseason, but with an entirely revamped running back room in the desert, any meaningful contributions in 2026 will likely be made on special teams. James Conner and Trey Benson played in a combined seven games in 2025, and while both are expected to be healthy heading into the season, they themselves will be battling for the third and fourth spots on the Cardinals' newly stacked depth chart after the team signed Tyler Allgeier in free agency and spent the third pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on future bell cow Jeremiyah Love. With no realistic path to playing time, Knight has fallen to RB93 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings and is no longer a player worth rostering.
