Jonathan Taylor News
Monday, February 16, 12:59 PM
Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor was off to a fantastic start to the 2025 season, but a midseason quarterback change weakened the offense and reduced his upside. The superstar running back was the overall RB1 in PPR leagues from Weeks 1 through 10, scoring an absurd 17 touchdowns during that span. He also had four three-touchdown games over a span of eight weeks. He was slightly less productive after the bye, and his productivity took another step backward when Daniel Jones (Achilles) tore his Achilles in Week 14. He still scored at least 12 points in four of his five games with Philip Rivers and Riley Leonard, but he was more of a low-end RB1 or high-end RB2 during that span. He can get back into the high-end RB1 tier with Jones healthy. In fact, he's an intriguing buy-low in dynasty leagues, and managers in redraft leagues should feel comfortable selecting him somewhere between picks 5-10 if Jones returns healthy for Week 1 of the 2026 season.

J.K. Dobbins News
Monday, March 9, 1:19 PM
The Denver Broncos reached an agreement with running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) on an undisclosed two-year deal on Monday to bring him back for another season, a source told Mike Klis of 9 News. Dobbins was on track for a career year in 2025 in his first year in Denver before suffering a season-ending foot injury that required surgery. The 27-year-old had 153 carries for 772 yards and four rushing touchdowns in 10 games while sharing touches with rookie second-rounder RJ Harvey. Dobbins also caught 11 passes for 37 yards through the air. Denver certainly liked the production that Dobbins gave them when healthy last year, enough so that they want to run it back again with the injury-prone RB. The former second-rounder in 2020 by the Baltimore Ravens has never played a full season and has also never reached the 1,000-yard mark in five seasons. His return is bad news for Harvey, who was the RB1 for the Broncos after Dobbins' injury. Dobbins will be a risk/reward RB3/flex target in fantasy football drafts this fall. The injury risk will be high for a lot of fantasy managers, especially since Harvey could have a bigger role in Year 2.
