Jaylen Wright News
Sunday, June 28, 11:18 AM
Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright had the start of his 2025 season disrupted by a knee injury, and he finished the year with 332 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 75 touches. As long as star Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (shoulder) makes a full recovery from offseason shoulder surgery and is ready for the start of 2026 as expected, Wright's production upside is limited. However, Wright may have emerged as the primary RB2 in Miami ahead of fellow Dolphins back Ollie Gordon II down the end of last season. Following the Dolphins' Week 12 bye, Wright matched or exceeded Gordon II's snap count in five out of six games. For dynasty managers looking to roster Achane's handcuff option, Wright could be the player to target.

Will Shipley News
Friday, November 21, 11:34 PM
Philadelphia Eagles Will Shipley has been relegated mostly to special teams touches and the occasional carry behind Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby as the team's RB3. The Eagles acquired Bigsby ahead of Week 7, and he's mostly served as the primary backup to Barkley. Since then, Bigsby and Shipley have each played 14.5% of the offensive snaps, but Bigsby has 17 carries to Shipley's seven during that span. The 2024 fourth-round pick entered the season as the No. 2 back for the Eagles, then missed Weeks 2 and 3 due to a rib injury, and has now fallen out of favor with the team, going out and trading for another back to have another capable option behind Barkley. Shipley still has some appeal as a handcuff if Barkley were to go down, but it would likely be a timeshare with Bigsby.
