Justice Hill News
Tuesday, July 14, 10:21 AM
Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill was limited to just 10 games in 2025 by toe and neck injuries, finishing the year with 262 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns on 39 touches. While Hill has never operated as a true lead back, he's been a reliable third-down option for the Ravens who compiled over 1,200 scrimmage yards and eight touchdowns from across 31 games in 2023 and 2024. Entering 2026, Hill could once again be the pass-catching complement to star Baltimore back Derrick Henry in the Ravens backfield. However, Baltimore has a couple of younger running back options who could put pressure on Hill in 2024 fifth-rounder Rasheen Ali and 2026 fifth-rounder Adam Randall. Hill has not averaged four carries per game since his rookie season in 2019 and is now entering his age-29 campaign. Even if Henry were to get injured, Hill might remain in a complementary role rather than taking over as the Ravens' lead back. Given his lack of obvious handcuff value, Hill may be overvalued as the RB65 by current redraft ADP.

Chris Brooks News
Tuesday, July 14, 5:12 PM
Green Bay Packers running back Chris Brooks saw his value skyrocket over the summer. Normally, Brooks is an afterthought in the Packers' backfield, but he could become a consistent contributor this season. Lead back Josh Jacobs got into some legal trouble, and his status is still unclear at the moment. If Jacobs does get suspended, MarShawn Lloyd and Brooks would be in line for larger roles in the backfield. Brooks didn't see much of the field last season, rushing for 106 yards on 27 carries with Green Bay. He remains the most trustworthy option between the two, with Lloyd only having six carries to his name in two years. If something happens to Jacobs, Brooks could become the starter in the short term. Otherwise, Brooks isn't a bad stash for dynasty managers as Jacobs' handcuff.
