Javonte Williams News
Tuesday, June 9, 6:32 AM
Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was the fantasy RB11 in 2025, with his 54 missed tackles forced ranking seventh in the league and reminding dynasty managers of the elite tackle-breaking ability he demonstrated throughout his collegiate career and as a second-round rookie in 2021. Now more than three seasons removed from the devastating knee injury that ended his sophomore campaign, Williams seems to have regained the balance and burst that had him ranked as highly as the RB2 in consensus dynasty rankings, and entering his second season in what looks to be another high-powered Dallas offense, he boasts legitimate league-winning potential. With the arduous injury recovery clouding so much of his fantasy profile over the past few seasons, Williams has become one of the more undervalued backs in dynasty, slotting in at RB21 in RotoBaller's latest rankings, but still only 26 years old and under contract through the 2028 season, he could realistically provide several more years of RB1 upside.

Jaylen Warren News
Thursday, May 28, 12:08 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is down to 205 lbs. for OTAs and is "looking slimmer" per Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Warren was listed at 215 lbs. for the 2025 season. The 27-year-old set career-highs across the board last season for the Steelers, finishing the year with 1,291 yards from scrimmage and eight touchdowns on 251 touches across 16 games (15 starts). Entering 2026, Warren projects to split backfield reps with new Steelers running back Rico Dowdle, who was signed to a two-year contract in March. Dowdle profiles as more of a downhill, short-yardage back, so Warren's weight loss could be a sign that the team wants him to focus on shiftiness for an open-field, pass-catching role. Both Pittsburgh running backs profile as mid-tier RB3/flex options entering 2026.
