Devin Neal News
Tuesday, June 23, 8:41 AM
A sixth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, New Orleans Saints running back Devin Neal recorded 310 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 74 touches across 10 games (three starts) as a rookie. Neal spent some time as the Saints' back down the stretch of the season, thanks to injuries to the running backs who opened the season ahead of him on the depth chart. However, Neal's role in New Orleans is back in question entering 2026 following the team's offseason signing of running back Travis Etienne Jr. Saints veteran back Alvin Kamara also currently remains with the team, which likely leaves Neal battling for the team's RB3 role with Kendre Miller (knee). Given the crowded running back room in New Orleans and his limited upside as a former sixth-rounder, dynasty managers may want to consider moving on from Neal ahead of 2026.

Trevor Etienne News
Thursday, June 4, 1:25 PM
Carolina Panthers running back Trevor Etienne currently projects to be behind both Chuba Hubbard and Jonathon Brooks on the team's running back depth chart, per Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer. A fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Etienne recorded just 107 scrimmage yards on 23 touches across 17 games as a rookie. Hubbard has recorded over 3,200 scrimmage yards and 20 touchdowns over the past three seasons for Carolina and profiles as the clear RB1. However, Brooks has been limited to just three games by knee injuries since being drafted in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft. Etienne could work his way past Brooks over the course of the summer. Still, it's notable that the Panthers may be thinking of Brooks as the complement to Hubbard at this point. It's too early to give up on Etienne in dynasty formats, but the 21-year-old has some work to do to establish himself after his underwhelming rookie year.
