Gus Edwards News
Friday, March 7, 7:32 PM
The Los Angeles Chargers have informed veteran running back Gus Edwards that he will be released in the coming days, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Edwards appeared in just 11 games in 2024, his only season with the Chargers, rushing for 365 yards and four touchdowns on 101 carries. With Edwards now a free-agent, the Chargers could have an entirely revamped backfield in 2025 with J.K. Dobbins also an unrestricted free-agent. There is a good chance the Chargers target a running back in the 2025 NFL draft in what is shaping up as a loaded class at the position. Edwards will now look to latch on with another team as an early-down and short-yardage grinder.

Trey Benson News
Wednesday, June 24, 8:58 AM
Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson had a golden opportunity to take over as his team's lead back in 2025 after Cardinals veteran running back James Conner suffered a season-ending ankle injury in Week 3. However, Benson himself then suffered a knee injury in Week 4 that ultimately ended his season as well. While Benson is expected to be fully healthy and ready to go for the start of 2026, the situation around him in Arizona has changed. The Cardinals signed running back Tyler Allgeier to a two-year contract in free agency and then drafted all-world running back prospect Jeremiyah Love third overall in the 2026 NFL Draft. Arizona also still currently has Conner on its roster, whom Benson has been unable to pass on the depth chart since he entered the league in 2023. A change in scenery could drastically alter Benson's dynasty outlook, but until that happens, his fantasy appeal is minimal.
