Khalil Herbert News
Thursday, October 2, 12:22 PM
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the New York Jets have signed running back Khalil Herbert to an undisclosed contract. Per Rapoport, the team placed running back Braelon Allen (knee) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. The Virginia Tech product was recently signed to Seattle's practice squad, but he'll now add depth in New York's backfield. With Allen out, and backfield mate Kene Nwangwu's (hamstring) status up in the air, it's possible that Herbert will see work right away behind starter Breece Hall and backup Isaiah Davis. The 27-year-old doesn't figure to be slated for a fantasy-relevant role, but he's at least on the deep handcuff radar in case the assets in front of him were to miss any time. The Jets will take on the Dallas Cowboys in Week 5.

Blake Corum News
Thursday, April 2, 8:05 AM
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum emerged as a standalone RB3/flex option during the 2025 season, and we expect him to handle a similar role in 2026. The Rams publicly acknowledged their desire to reduce Kyren Williams' workload to keep him healthy for a full season, giving some of his snaps and touches to Corum. In his second NFL season, Corum exploded for 746 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns, ranking as the overall RB40 in PPR leagues. Most of his success came in the final third of the season; he ranked as the overall RB19 from Week 13-18. Make no mistake about it: Corum's bigger role wasn't only the product of the Rams wanting to keep Williams healthy. Corum was also fantastic with the ball in his hands, averaging 5.14 yards per carry and scoring five touchdowns over four games from Week 13-16. Assuming the backfield dynamic looks similar in 2026, Corum will remain a standalone RB3/flex, and he would become a fringe top-12 fantasy running back if Williams misses any time due to injury.
