Jamaal Williams Working Out for Dolphins on Monday

Monday, August 11, 12:00 PM

Free-agent running back Jamaal Williams is scheduled to work out for the Miami Dolphins on Monday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Williams worked out for the Chicago Bears on Saturday, so he could be getting close to signing with a team for the 2025 season. The 30-year-old played in 14 games for the New Orleans Saints in 2024, rushing for 164 yards and one touchdown on 48 carries. He's a complementary piece at this point, but Williams has been an effective goal-line and short-yardage player at certain times in his career. Miami has Jaylen Wright, Alexander Mattison, and Ollie Gordon II as the leading candidates for the RB2 role behind De'Von Achane. However, Mattison (neck/shoulder) left the team's first preseason game early with neck and shoulder soreness, so Williams could be brought in as a veteran replacement.

Jets Placing Franchise Tag on Breece Hall

Tuesday, March 3, 6:24 AM

The New York Jets are officially placing the franchise tag on impending free-agent running back Breece Hall on Tuesday, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. The tag in 2026 for RBs is set at $14.29 million. Both sides are motivated to get a long-term deal done by the deadline on July 15, but for now, Hall will be off the free-agent market in 2026. The 24-year-old former second-rounder in 2022 out of Iowa State would have been at the top of the RB market if he had reached free agency after running for a career-high 1,065 yards and four touchdowns on 243 carries in 2025. Hall added 36 receptions for 350 yards and another score in 16 games last year. For fantasy purposes, leaving New York would have been ideal, but Hall will return to Gang Green looking for a second straight 1,000-yard rushing season. It could prove difficult, depending on how the team addresses the quarterback position this offseason.
