Who Should I Start? Donta Foreman or Jeremy McNichols

Cleveland Browns running back D'Onta Foreman carried the ball 10 times for 27 yards and caught his lone target for an eight-yard gain in a 35-10 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 18. Foreman opened the game as the team's starter and led the backfield but it was slow going for the veteran, who saw just three carries after halftime. Foreman is an unrestricted free-agent heading into the offseason and will look to catch on somewhere to continue his career after averaging just 3.3 yards per carry with the Browns in 2024.

The Washington Commanders are re-signing running back Jeremy McNichols to an undisclosed one-year deal on Tuesday, a source tells ESPN's John Keim. Although McNichols wasn't on the fantasy radar at all last year in his first year in D.C., he was a valuable member of the team's RB room as a backup for his blitz pickups while also contributing a career-high 267 rushing yards and a career-high four rushing touchdowns on 55 carries over 17 regular-season games (one start). He also had nine catches for 27 yards and added nine yards and a touchdown on five carries in three playoff games. With both Brian Robinson Jr. and Austin Ekeler returning to the Commanders' backfield in 2025, McNichols will open the year as the No. 3 RB and will have a bigger role on special teams as a return man. The 29-year-old has only 625 rushing yards and five rushing TDs on 145 carries over seven NFL seasons.
