Joe Mixon News
Wednesday, May 6, 7:53 AM
Free agent running back Joe Mixon (ankle, foot) remains unsigned, and now that we've reached the month of May, there are serious questions about whether he'll be able to occupy a meaningful role for the 2026 season. Mixon missed all of last year due to injury, and while we know he was dealing with ankle and foot issues, the Texans were very secretive about his status and why his injury timeline dragged on so much longer than anticipated. Even as Mixon hits free agency, we still haven't heard any updates about his health or status. The fact that none of the 32 teams has signed him feels discouraging, though. It was a rapid fall-off for the veteran back, who is just one year removed from tallying 1,016 rushing yards, 309 receiving yards, and 12 touchdowns in Houston. Now, if he does sign somewhere, it'll likely be in a backup role, capping his standalone value in the RB3/flex tier (at best). As long as he's unsigned, Mixon is somewhat untouchable in fantasy football, slotting in as the overall RB73 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings.

Blake Corum News
Wednesday, June 3, 9:32 AM
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to be a top handcuff while also offering standalone value in deeper leagues. Corum took on a larger role during the second half of the 2025 season, totaling 405 rushing yards and five touchdowns over the final six games. From Week 13-16, he was the overall RB8 in PPR leagues, despite Kyren Williams being the lead back and Corum having just two catches during that window. Corum already ranks as the RB32 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings, and he has top-12 upside if Williams were to miss time. Dynasty managers should consider sending out trade offers for Corum this offseason. Although his price tag went up based on his strong 2025 campaign, he's still likely priced below his true value. He's a particularly valuable target for managers who have Williams on their roster and want a little insurance in case he goes down.
