Isiah Pacheco News
Monday, June 22, 8:20 AM
Detroit Lions running back Isiah Pacheco enters 2026 in a backup role behind star Lions back Jahmyr Gibbs. It's a new role for Pacheco, who spent most of his first four seasons in the NFL as the RB1 for the Kansas City Chiefs. However, Pacheco has struggled with both injuries and ineffectiveness over the past two seasons, missing 14 games and averaging just 3.8 yards per carry since the start of the 2024 campaign. In Detroit, Pacheco's touches will be limited as long as Gibbs remains healthy. Still, former Lions RB2 David Montgomery recorded 908 scrimmage yards and eight touchdowns across 17 games in 2025. If Pacheco can assume a similar role as the thunder to Gibbs' lightning, he could be a productive player for fantasy managers in 2026. Pacheco's handcuff appeal is obvious as well, as he profiles as the clear winner in the Detroit backfield if Gibbs suffers an injury. In redraft leagues, Pacheco could be a late-round sleeper to target in drafts.

Breece Hall News
Sunday, June 14, 6:00 PM
New York Jets running back Breece Hall was one of his team's lone bright spots in 2025, recording 1,415 yards from scrimmage and five touchdowns on 279 touches across 16 games. Coming off three consecutive seasons with at least 1,350 scrimmage yards, Hall seemingly secured his place as a building block in the Jets offense by signing a three-year, $43.5 million contract extension in May. However, early reports out of Jets camp indicate that the team may be planning for a "three-headed monster" in their backfield between Hall, Braelon Allen, and Isaiah Davis. Dynasty managers may not want to panic just yet, as Hall's production track record and his contractual status may speak louder than early camp reports. Still, the Jets may be looking for ways to limit Hall's workload and keep him fresh throughout the entire season. It's too early for dynasty managers to be looking to sell high on Hall yet, but the Jets' backfield plans are worth monitoring throughout the remainder of the summer.
