Isiah Pacheco News
Friday, May 8, 12:59 PM
Detroit Lions running back Isiah Pacheco enters 2026 looking to revitalize his career after consecutive disastrous seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2024 and 2025. A fractured fibula limited Pacheco to seven games in 2024, and he recorded just 563 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns across 13 games in 2025. The Lions signed Pacheco to a modest one-year, $1.8 million contract in free agency, and he figures to serve as the RB2 behind Jahmyr Gibbs in Detroit. While Gibbs' presence obviously limits Pacheco's fantasy upside, former Lions back David Montgomery collected 716 rushing yards and eight touchdowns while playing behind Gibbs in 2025. Should Pacheco see similar usage to Montgomery, he could be a matchup-dependent flex option while carrying latent handcuff upside. His dynasty stock has obviously taken a hit over the past couple of seasons, but Pacheco may still be a decent buy-low target for dynasty managers.

Breece Hall News
Friday, May 8, 11:16 AM
The New York Jets and running back Breece Hall agreed to a three-year contract extension on Friday worth up to $45.75 million, making him the league's third-highest-paid RB, multiple sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Only the Eagles' Saquon Barkley and the 49ers' Christian McCaffrey will make more than Hall at the position on an annual basis. The 24-year-old earned himself a new deal in New York by having a career year in 2025 in his fourth year in the NFL with 1,065 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 243 carries across 16 starts. The former second-rounder in 2022 out of Iowa State also added 36 receptions for 350 yards and another score on 48 targets in the passing game despite being in one of the worst offenses in the league. He has averaged 1,453 scrimmage yards and 7.3 touchdowns per season in his four years with Gang Green. Unfortunately for Hall's fantasy ceiling, New York's offense could be atrocious yet again in 2026 with veteran QB Geno Smith expected to lead them. Because of how bad the Jets have been, he should be considered a volume-based RB2 in fantasy drafts this fall. RotoBaller has Hall ranked as the No. 19 fantasy RB.
