Michael Carter Signing with the Titans

Wednesday, April 1, 7:51 PM

The Tennessee Titans have signed free agent running back Michael Carter, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Carter reunites with Robert Saleh, who was his head coach when the Jets drafted him and is now the head coach of the Titans. The 26-year-old wasn't always fantasy relevant last year, but he had a decent season nonetheless. He ultimately played in 13 games and ranked as the overall RB48 in PPR leagues with 333 rushing yards, 33 catches, 267 receiving yards, and one touchdown. He made five starts along the way, highlighted by an 18.3-point performance in Week 5 against (ironically) the Titans. Carter projects as the No. 3 running back in Tennessee, slotting into a depth role behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears. He faces an uphill battle to earn fantasy-relevant snaps in 2026.

Bam Knight News

Bam Knight's Dynasty Value Has Run Dry in Crowded Running Back Room

Wednesday, May 27, 5:24 AM

Arizona running back Bam Knight took advantage of a depleted Cardinals depth chart in 2025, finishing as the fantasy RB24 or better in five different weeks while leading the team with four rushing touchdowns. Knight signed a one-year deal to return to Arizona this offseason, but with an entirely revamped running back room in the desert, any meaningful contributions in 2026 will likely be made on special teams. James Conner and Trey Benson played in a combined seven games in 2025, and while both are expected to be healthy heading into the season, they themselves will be battling for the third and fourth spots on the Cardinals' newly stacked depth chart after the team signed Tyler Allgeier in free agency and spent the third pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on future bell cow Jeremiyah Love. With no realistic path to playing time, Knight has fallen to RB93 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings and is no longer a player worth rostering.
