Michael Burton News
Wednesday, March 26, 2:35 PM
The Denver Broncos are re-signing fullback Michael Burton for the 2025 campaign, according to team reporter Zac Stevens. Burton was originally a fifth-round pick by the Detroit Lions in 2015 out of Rutgers and has spent time with the Lions, Bears, Saints, Redskins, Chiefs, and Broncos. He reunited with Sean Payton in Denver in 2023 and is back for his third season with the organization. The 33-year-old is primarily utilized as a pure blocker, but he has compiled 42 carries for 79 yards and two touchdowns in 147 career games. He's hauled in 31 receptions for 196 yards and two scores as a receiver. In 2025, he could be blocking for a highly-drafted rookie running back like North Carolina's Omarion Hampton or Ohio State's TreVeyon Henderson.

Bam Knight News
Wednesday, March 11, 7:17 AM
The Arizona Cardinals agreed to re-sign running back Bam Knight to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to his agent, Mike McCartney. Knight became a much bigger part of Arizona's backfield last year than anyone would have expected after season-ending injuries to both James Conner (foot) and Trey Benson (knee). The 24-year-old finished the year with 82 carries for 269 yards and a career-high four touchdowns, adding 22 receptions for 160 yards and another score through the air in 12 games (eight starts). Conner and Benson are still under contract with the Cardinals for the 2026 season, and they also signed former Atlanta Falcons RB Tyler Allgeier earlier this week. At best, Knight will be the RB3 or RB4 in Arizona going into next season, so he's unlikely to have nearly as many opportunities for touches unless injuries strike again.
