Derrick Henry News
Thursday, July 30, 5:35 PM
Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has been one of the top players at his position for many years. Despite his stellar performance, fantasy managers need to start thinking about when Henry might decide to retire. The 32-year-old is entering his 11th season in the NFL. Despite his age, Henry recently said that he's not thinking about retirement right now. He is focused on being the best player possible and helping the Ravens win football games. Henry has finished in the top-8 or better in each of the last four seasons. At some point, you would think age regression would play a factor, but Henry is apparently a different animal. He's currently ranked as the RB13 in redraft leagues heading into the season.

Bijan Robinson News
Saturday, August 1, 10:12 AM
Atlanta Falcons star running back Bijan Robinson and the team are working on a potential long-term deal, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. The Falcons recently signed guard Matthew Bergeron to a four-year, $96 million contract on Saturday. Atlanta inked wide receiver Drake London to a four-year $141 million pact while extending tight end Kyle Pitts to a three-year, $54 million deal in June. Robinson is next in line for an extension after the Falcons already locked up London, Bergeron, and Pitts for the next few years. Atlanta did exercise Robinson's fifth-year option earlier in the offseason. The 24-year-old has been absent in practice and is waiting it out for a long-term deal with the team. He racked up 1,478 rushing yards and seven touchdowns while catching 79 passes for 820 yards and four scores over 17 games last season. The Falcons and Robinson will likely get something done before Week 1, and the track record of the recent extensions proves this is the likely outcome. Robinson is one of the top running backs in fantasy and is coming off the draft board as either the first or second overall player in most fantasy football drafts.
