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.

Ollie Gordon II News
Sunday, March 15, 8:26 AM
Across 17 games as a rookie in 2025, Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II recorded 70 carries for 199 yards and three touchdowns. While Gordon II flashed upside at different points throughout the season, he was ultimately blocked off from playing time by superstar Dolphins back De'Von Achane. Gordon II also lost some playing time down the stretch to Miami running back Jaylen Wright, who finished the year with the same number of carries (70) as Gordon II. The Dolphins will have a new coaching staff in place for the 2026 season, which brings some uncertainty to the backfield playing time situation. Still, barring a trade, Gordon II will undoubtedly be stuck behind Achane and may ultimately end up third on his team's running back depth chart. Gordon II retains some dynasty value after 2025, but it's difficult to project a year two breakout without a drastic change to the situation around him in Miami.
