Monday, March 25, 9:07 PM
Former New England Patriots running back Damien Harris announced his retirement from professional football on Monday at age 27. The Patriots selected Harris in the third round (87th overall) in the 2019 NFL draft out of Alabama, and he had 449 rushing attempts for 2,094 yards and 20 touchdowns in his four years in New England in 38 regular-season games (34 starts) while adding 40 receptions on 51 targets for an additional 281 receiving yards. Harris spent the 2023 campaign with the Buffalo Bills but played in only six games before suffering a season-ending concussion/neck injury that saw him be taken off the field in an ambulance. He'll end his NFL career after just five seasons, recording 2,188 rushing yards and 21 touchdowns on 427 carries with the Pats and Bills.

Rachaad White News
Tuesday, July 14, 10:10 AM
After spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, running back Rachaad White is entering his first season with the Washington Commanders in 2026. Across 17 games with Tampa Bay in 2025, White recorded 790 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns on 172 touches. The 27-year-old has never been the most efficient rusher, as he's averaged 3.9 yards per carry for his career. However, White has averaged over 50 catches and 350 receiving yards per season as a pro. He's also been exceptionally durable, missing just one game over the last four years. In Washington, White is part of a crowded running back room that also includes Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kaytron Allen, Jeremy McNichols, and Jeremy Ford. While Croskey-Merritt and Allen specifically may have more upside as rushers, White may offer the most three-down reliability. If White emerges as the lead back in Washington, he could be a bargain at his current redraft ADP of RB38.
