Julius Chestnut News
Tuesday, March 17, 12:38 PM
The Tennessee Titans re-signed running back Julius Chestnut to an undisclosed one-year deal on Tuesday, according to Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com. Chestnut will return for his fifth year in Nashville after he went undrafted out of Sacred Heart. In his four years in the NFL with the Titans, the 25-year-old has operated as a backup, carrying the ball only 42 times for 154 yards (3.7 yards per carry) and no rushing touchdowns in 43 games (zero starts). He's added five catches on eight targets for 52 yards as a pass-catcher. With the Titans' backfield largely unchained going into next season, Chestnut will most likely operate primarily in a special-teams role, leaving him mostly unattractive in all fantasy football formats. He was active in all 17 games in 2025, but he saw just 11 rushing attempts for 40 yards. He's currently the RB4 on Tennessee's depth chart behind Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears, and Kalel Mullings.

Woody Marks News
Monday, March 23, 7:34 AM
Houston Texans running back Woody Marks led the team with 703 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 196 rushing attempts in 16 regular-season games in his first year in the NFL, with Joe Mixon (ankle, foot) missing the entire season. Overall for Houston, though, it was a lackluster rushing attack with Marks and veteran Nick Chubb, as the team ranked 22nd in rushing yards per game (108). Mixon and Chubb won't return in 2026, and the Texans acquired David Montgomery from the Detroit Lions this offseason to help bolster their ground game. ESPN's DJ Bien-Aime writes that Montgomery "will enter the 2026 season as the No. 1 back for Houston." It's bad news for the 25-year-old Marks' redraft and dynasty value heading into his sophomore campaign. The former fourth-rounder out of USC averaged 3.6 yards per carry last year and caught 24 of his 36 targets for 208 yards and three touchdowns through the air. Marks will still be involved in the Texans' backfield, but as long as Monty is healthy, he'll be more of a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex on a weekly basis.
