Justice Hill News
Thursday, June 18, 5:38 PM
Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill could have an uphill battle ahead of him to keep the No. 2 role in the backfield. Hill only played in 10 games this past season due to injuries. When healthy, Hill finished with 93 rushing yards while hauling in 21 receptions for 169 yards through the air in 2025. Hill could have a tough time securing the backup gig after a lackluster campaign last season. The Ravens selected Adam Randall in the fifth-round during this year's draft. He could quickly surpass Hill on the depth chart, assuming he looks good during training camp. There's not a ton of carries available when Derrick Henry is healthy, but the Ravens are likely looking towards the future at this point. It wouldn't be shocking to see them give more carries to Randall over Hill, who is 28 years old.

Isiah Pacheco News
Monday, June 22, 8:20 AM
Detroit Lions running back Isiah Pacheco enters 2026 in a backup role behind star Lions back Jahmyr Gibbs. It's a new role for Pacheco, who spent most of his first four seasons in the NFL as the RB1 for the Kansas City Chiefs. However, Pacheco has struggled with both injuries and ineffectiveness over the past two seasons, missing 14 games and averaging just 3.8 yards per carry since the start of the 2024 campaign. In Detroit, Pacheco's touches will be limited as long as Gibbs remains healthy. Still, former Lions RB2 David Montgomery recorded 908 scrimmage yards and eight touchdowns across 17 games in 2025. If Pacheco can assume a similar role as the thunder to Gibbs' lightning, he could be a productive player for fantasy managers in 2026. Pacheco's handcuff appeal is obvious as well, as he profiles as the clear winner in the Detroit backfield if Gibbs suffers an injury. In redraft leagues, Pacheco could be a late-round sleeper to target in drafts.
