The Washington Commanders are re-signing running back Jeremy McNichols to an undisclosed one-year deal on Tuesday, a source tells ESPN's John Keim. Although McNichols wasn't on the fantasy radar at all last year in his first year in D.C., he was a valuable member of the team's RB room as a backup for his blitz pickups while also contributing a career-high 267 rushing yards and a career-high four rushing touchdowns on 55 carries over 17 regular-season games (one start). He also had nine catches for 27 yards and added nine yards and a touchdown on five carries in three playoff games. With both Brian Robinson Jr. and Austin Ekeler returning to the Commanders' backfield in 2025, McNichols will open the year as the No. 3 RB and will have a bigger role on special teams as a return man. The 29-year-old has only 625 rushing yards and five rushing TDs on 145 carries over seven NFL seasons.

Nine-time Pro Bowl fullback Kyle Juszczyk re-signed with the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday on a two-year, $8 million deal, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Juszczyk will return to the Bay Area for his ninth year after the Niners released him back on Monday. The 33-year-old has never been on the fantasy radar, but he will continue to be a key blocking asset in the team's backfield for starting running back Christian McCaffrey (knee) in 2025. When Juszczyk does factor in on offense, it's usually through the air as a receiver. In his 12-year NFL career, he's caught 281 passes on 378 targets for 2,664 yards and 18 total touchdowns while carrying the ball only 67 times for 237 yards and six TDs. Last year in 17 games (15 starts), he had 19 catches on 31 targets for 200 yards and two scores, adding just five carries for 26 yards and one TD.
