Frank Gore Jr. News
Saturday, August 23, 11:50 PM
Buffalo Bills running back Frank Gore Jr. led the Bills in yards from scrimmage for the third straight week in a 23-19 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday. Gore amassed 61 total yards (32 rushing, 29 receiving) on 10 carries and two catches, and he scored his lone touchdown of the preseason on a one-yard run in the first quarter. In all, the hard-running 23-year-old piled up 104 yards on the ground on 23 attempts and hauled in 11 catches for another 109 yards in three preseason contests. Even though Gore stood out in Buffalo's exhibition games, he doesn't have a clear path to a roster spot with James Cook, Ray Davis, and Ty Johnson ahead of him on the depth chart. Odds are that the former Southern Miss standout will either wind up on the Bills' practice squad for the second year in a row or join another team via waivers before the season. He made a compelling case that he's an NFL-caliber back during the preseason.

Ollie Gordon II News
Friday, July 10, 4:58 PM
Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane will be the team's clear lead back again in 2026, but Mike Masala of Dolphins Wire writes that the battle between Ollie Gordon II and Jaylen Wright for the RB2 role will be "one of the more underrated competitions happening" at training camp this summer. Gordon is extremely physical at 6-foot-2 and 230-plus pounds. The 22-year-old former sixth-rounder last year out of Oklahoma State had 70 carries as a rookie for 199 yards (2.8 yards per attempt) and three touchdowns in 17 games (one start), adding just seven receptions for 32 yards and another score. Wright also had exactly 70 rushing attempts, but he was more efficient with 4.1 yards per carry in fewer games played (10). If Achane were to miss any time due to injury in 2026, Gordon would most likely operate as the between-the-tackles runner because of his size, with Wright taking on more of a pass-catching role out of the backfield. Both Gordon and Wright are attractive deeper-league handcuffs with different strengths. RotoBaller has Gordon ranked as the No. 80 fantasy RB entering his second year in the NFL.
