Derrick Henry News
Saturday, June 13, 6:00 AM
An outlier of the highest order, Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has played 37 games since turning 30, averaging over 115 yards per game while scoring 38 touchdowns. While the coaching staff in Baltimore faces a major shakeup for 2026, the offensive philosophy of feeding one of the league's premier bell cow backs is unlikely to change. After serving as the team's primary change-of-pace back in 2025, Keaton Mitchell was not offered a restricted free agent tender and allowed to walk in free agency, and with 11 picks heading into the 2026 NFL Draft, the Ravens did not add a running back until owner Steve Bisciotti was given the opportunity to put his stamp on the draft with the selection of Adam Randall in the fifth round. Given his age and production, it's likely that Henry is already rostered by a contending manager in most dynasty leagues, but wherever that isn't already the case, the 11th-year veteran makes for an affordable trade target and is still a potential league-winner as RotoBaller's RB24.

Kaleb Johnson News
Wednesday, June 17, 8:58 AM
A third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson was unable to carve out a meaningful role in his team's offense as a rookie. Johnson spent the season stuck behind Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell on the Steelers' running back depth chart and finished the year with just 28 carries across 10 games played. While Gainwell departed Pittsburgh in free agency, the team replaced him with former Carolina Panthers running back Rico Dowdle. As a result, Johnson once again appears likely to be limited to RB3 duties for the Steelers in 2026. However, he'll get a chance to work with a new coaching staff in his second NFL season, which could be the clean slate that Johnson needs to revitalize his pro career. The 22-year-old recorded over 1,500 rushing yards and 23 total touchdowns across 12 games in his final collegiate season at Iowa, so he has some untapped rushing potential. For dynasty managers in the midst of a rebuild, Johnson could be worth targeting as a buy-low trade candidate.
