George Holani Handling Most First-Team Reps Early in Camp

Monday, July 27, 11:57 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani has been first through Thomas Hammock's position drills and has handled most of the first-team backfield work through two training camp practices, according to The News Tribune. First-round rookie Jadarian Price has also rotated into the starting offense, so Holani's early placement does not make him the established starter. The 5-foot-11, 210-pound Holani appeared in 11 regular-season games in 2025, rushing 22 times for 73 yards and one touchdown while catching two passes for 15 yards. After returning from injured reserve in the postseason, he stepped into the No. 2 role following Zach Charbonnet's knee injury and recorded five carries for 10 yards and four receptions for 34 yards across the NFC Championship Game and Super Bowl. Charbonnet (knee) opened camp on the PUP list with no return timetable, creating additional opportunities for Holani and Price. Holani's receiving and pass-protection ability could help him earn a complementary role, but Price's first-round investment remains a major obstacle to dependable fantasy value.

Trevor Etienne Still Has Work to Do for Redraft Value

Sunday, July 26, 9:28 AM

Carolina Panthers running back Trevor Etienne remains a long shot for useful redraft work after barely touching the offense as a rookie. He appeared in all 17 games, but 20 carries for 94 yards and three catches for 13 yards were the extent of his production. Special teams kept him active. It did not move him any closer to Chuba Hubbard, who enters camp as Carolina's clear lead back. Jonathon Brooks is also back after missing last season with his second ACL tear, and the early camp reports have been encouraging. The Panthers added AJ Dillon, too, although the veteran is fighting for a roster spot rather than walking into a guaranteed role. Etienne still has speed, youth, and fourth-round draft capital on his side. He also has to prove he can earn more than a handful of offensive snaps. RotoBaller ranks him RB84 for redraft, which is where he belongs until the backfield starts opening up. He is a preseason watch-list player in deeper formats, not someone managers need to force into ordinary drafts.
