Justice Hill News
Sunday, August 9, 7:25 PM
Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill enters his seventh NFL season as he prepares for his first coaching change. Hill had a down year in 2025, totaling 262 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games, averaging 5.5 half-PPR fantasy points per game. The good news: former Bears' offensive coordinator Declan Doyle is now the team's play caller. Doyle comes from the Sean Payton coaching tree, and in all the years he's been in the NFL, running backs have caught more than 50 passes in five of the seven seasons. Payton's offense favors throwing to running backs, which is good news for Hill, who is clearly the best receiving back in the offense. Hill's role in Baltimore is solidified, but with star running back Derrick Henry expected to take most of the snaps in this backfield, Hill doesn't carry much fantasy value in 2026.

Kenny Gainwell News
Friday, August 7, 6:15 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Kenny Gainwell is not practicing on Friday, as indicated by Pewter Report. Gainwell has drawn praise from the local beat as a training camp standout, with offensive coordinator Zac Robinson recently telling reporters, "He is super versatile, and he is great with the ball in his hands," adding, "we will continue to find out where we can put him in the best spots." Gainwell's 73 receptions were the fourth most by a running back in 2025, and assuming his absence is not a prolonged one, he could step seamlessly into Rachaad White's vacated pass-catching role that has allowed for at least 50 receptions in three of the last four seasons. How much additional work he sees on the ground remains to be seen, but at RotoBaller's RB36, Gainwell is a potential late-round sleeper who could thrive in Robinson's wide zone offense.
