David Montgomery News
Saturday, March 14, 9:33 AM
Running back David Montgomery, recently acquired via trade by the Houston Texans, has had his contract upgraded by the team, with the two-year deal now worth up to $16.5 million. The revised contract, which features a $6.5 million signing bonus and heavy per-game active roster bonuses, signals that the Texans view him as their clear starter following a season in which rookie Woody Marks led the team in carries, but no back topped 200 attempts or more than 13 carries per game. Playing in a supporting role to Pro-Bowler Jahmyr Gibbs in Detroit, Montgomery has also failed to reach the 200-carry mark in either of the past two seasons, giving him relatively fresh legs as he prepares for his age-29 campaign.

De'Von Achane News
Wednesday, March 18, 7:08 AM
NFL teams that have recently called the Miami Dolphins to inquire about trading for running back De'Von Achane have been told that he is "not available," sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Under new general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and head coach Jeff Hafley, the Dolphins have traded or released most of the veteran core, but Achane, who is entering the final season of his four-year rookie deal, is part of the team's plan going forward. The Dolphins traded star receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos on Tuesday and also sent veteran defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick to the New York Jets earlier this month. Achane averaged a league-leading 5.7 yards per carry and rushed for a career-high 1,350 yards and eight touchdowns in 2025, making him the RB6 in half-PPR scoring. He also caught 67 passes for 488 yards and four touchdowns. He's a dynamic threat out of the backfield, and while his volume will remain plentiful, Achane's fantasy stock takes a hit now that he's the only trustworthy option on offense right now in Miami.
