Zamir White Signing Adds Question Marks to Jordan James' Status

Wednesday, August 12, 6:11 PM

The San Francisco 49ers signed veteran running back Zamir White to a one-year contract after White's Monday workout with the team. White is joining a backfield decimated by injuries during training camp. Second-year back Jordan James (ribs) fractured his ribs on the second day of training camp after a hit from All-Pro linebacker Fred Warner. The 2025 fifth-round pick was expected to miss several weeks, with no timetable for return. White's addition heightens concerns about James's availability for the start of the 2026 season. Both White and James, along with third-round pick Kaelon Black, are expected to back up running back Christian McCaffrey this season. With the star running back dealing with minor soreness and a lengthy list of previous injuries, the backup in this offense has fantasy value as a handcuff.

Adam Randall Leads the Way for Ravens in Preseason Debut

Saturday, August 15, 7:30 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back Adam Randall led the team with 12 carries, 46 rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown during Saturday's preseason victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. He also caught one of two targets for two receiving yards. Earlier this week, we heard rumors that the Ravens coaching staff was very impressed by Randall, a fifth-round pick out of Clemson. While we can't put too much stock in one preseason game, his production on Saturday certainly reaffirms why the Baltimore brass is so optimistic. Derrick Henry remains the primary ball-carrier here and Justice Hill is the clear pass-catching back, but Randall is making a legitimate push for the No. 3 running back job ahead over Rasheen Ali. If the 22-year-old can continue to produce this preseason, he could emerge as an intriguing stash in dynasty leagues, especially for Derrick Henry managers looking to get a high-upside handcuff.
