J.K. Dobbins News
Monday, March 9, 1:19 PM
The Denver Broncos reached an agreement with running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) on an undisclosed two-year deal on Monday to bring him back for another season, a source told Mike Klis of 9 News. Dobbins was on track for a career year in 2025 in his first year in Denver before suffering a season-ending foot injury that required surgery. The 27-year-old had 153 carries for 772 yards and four rushing touchdowns in 10 games while sharing touches with rookie second-rounder RJ Harvey. Dobbins also caught 11 passes for 37 yards through the air. Denver certainly liked the production that Dobbins gave them when healthy last year, enough so that they want to run it back again with the injury-prone RB. The former second-rounder in 2020 by the Baltimore Ravens has never played a full season and has also never reached the 1,000-yard mark in five seasons. His return is bad news for Harvey, who was the RB1 for the Broncos after Dobbins' injury. Dobbins will be a risk/reward RB3/flex target in fantasy football drafts this fall. The injury risk will be high for a lot of fantasy managers, especially since Harvey could have a bigger role in Year 2.

De'Von Achane News
Sunday, March 1, 7:10 AM
The Miami Dolphins are expected to work on long-term contract extensions for running back De'Von Achane, center Aaron Brewer, and linebacker Jordyn Brooks this offseason, according to Dan Graziano of ESPN. The Dolphins have a new general manager and a new coaching staff and are "likely entering something of a rebuild," but they want to build around core players like Achane. Wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is also viewed as a core player, but he's already signed long-term. The 24-year-old Achane was easily the team's most productive offensive player in 2025 in another disappointing season. He was a first-time Pro Bowler after rushing for a career-high 1,350 yards and eight touchdowns on 238 carries over 16 games. Achane added 67 catches for 488 yards and another four scores on 85 targets. He led the league with 5.7 yards per carry and should firmly be in the RB1 mix in 2026 for the heavy volume as Miami's clear lead back.
