Hunter Luepke News
Wednesday, September 3, 9:47 AM
The Dallas Cowboys and fullback Hunter Luepke have agreed to a two-year contract extension worth up to $7.5 million, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo. The deal makes Luepke the second-highest paid fullback in the NFL, joining San Francisco's Kyle Juszczyk, behind Miami Dolphins' Alec Ingold. The third-year pro out of North Dakota State is coming off the best season of his career in 2024, when he tallied 149 yards and a touchdown on 24 touches. Beyond his production, Luepke proved his value as a versatile contributor, excelling as a runner, receiver, and blocker in the Cowboys' offense. With the extension secured, Luepke is expected to remain Dallas's starting fullback as the team prepares for a critical Week 1 divisional matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Trey Benson News
Monday, August 17, 1:00 PM
Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) was back at training camp practice on Monday, according to Tyler Drake of Arizona Sports. Benson's surgically repaired left knee flared up several weeks ago, and the Cardinals have been playing it safe with him after he played in only four games in 2025 in his second year in the league. The 24-year-old former third-rounder from Florida State figures to be Arizona's RB4 to begin the 2026 regular season as long as all of rookie Jeremiyah Love (ankle), Tyler Allgeier, and James Conner (foot) are fully healthy. Benson did not play in last Thursday's preseason contest against the Las Vegas Raiders, but he could get some run this Saturday against the Dallas Cowboys if both Love and Conner are unavailable. He has an opportunity to make some noise this week with both Love and Conner nursing injuries, but Benson will still be off the fantasy radar in most single-year leagues in 2026.
