Josh Jacobs News
Wednesday, May 27, 12:32 PM
A statement released by the lawyers of Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs confirms that Jacobs has been released from custody and that "no criminal charges have been filed against him." Jacobs was arrested and booked into the Brown County Jail on Tuesday night on counts of battery, criminal damage of property, disorderly conduct, strangulation and suffocation, and intimidation of a victim. While Jacobs has been released from jail, this appears to be an ongoing situation that fantasy managers will need to monitor closely in the coming weeks and months. The 28-year-old has been the Packers' workhorse back over the last two seasons, collecting nearly 2,900 yards from scrimmage and 30 touchdowns across 32 games. If Jacobs were to face some sort of discipline from the NFL and miss time, Chris Brooks and MarShawn Lloyd profile as the current favorites to lead the Green Bay backfield.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. News
Monday, May 4, 7:48 AM
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. may fall back into the No. 2 role on the depth chart this season, but that won't necessarily prevent him from remaining a relevant option in fantasy football. All signs point to Cam Skattebo (ankle) reclaiming the lead-back role by Week 1, but Tracy's strong second half of the 2025 season should be enough to earn him a healthy share of touches behind Skattebo in 2026. That's especially true as we see more NFL teams shift to a shared backfield dynamic with two impactful ball-carries. Tracy was the overall RB12 in half-PPR leagues from Week 11-18 last year, so even if he handles ~40% of the snaps and volume in New York, he should still offer value as a weekly RB3/flex option. Plus, with Skattebo coming off an injury, rostering his handcuff is certainly not a bad idea. This Giants offense is trending up with Jaxson Dart leading the way, and Tracy stands to benefit as a result.
