Mike Davis News
Monday, February 19, 3:49 PM
Running back Mike Davis officially announced his retirement from professional football on Monday on his X account. "As I turn 31 today, I sit back and look on my NFL career and how thankful I am to be apart of a brotherhood. This game has allowed me to make a lot of friends and memories. I'm grateful for every organization in NFL. With that being said I'm retiring!" Davis wrote. The 31-year-old was initially a fourth-round pick in 2015 by the San Francisco 49ers out of South Carolina. He spent the first two seasons of his career in San Fran before playing for the Seattle Seahawks, Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears, Carolina Panthers, Atlanta Falcons and Baltimore Ravens. Davis will wrap up his eight-year career with a total of 558 carries for 2,052 yards (3.7 yards per tote) and 14 touchdowns, adding 171 catches for 1,066 yards and four TDs in the air over 87 games (30 starts).

Austin Ekeler News
Thursday, April 30, 9:22 AM
Veteran free-agent running back Austin Ekeler (Achilles) is 100% fully medically cleared for all football activities after suffering a torn right Achilles last September against the Green Bay Packers, a league source told Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. Ekeler intends to play in 2026 and is expected to draw plenty of interest. The 30-year-old was one of the premier pass-catching backs in the NFL in his seven seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers before he signed a two-year deal with the Washington Commanders before the 2024 season. He appeared in 12 games (six starts) for Washington in 2024, carrying the ball 77 times for 367 yards and four touchdowns while catching 35 passes for 366 receiving yards. Ekeler missed some time due to a concussion that year before playing in just two games in 2025 before tearing his Achilles. Ekeler might not be the same shifty back in space after his season-ending injury, but he could still give a team some solid pass-catching depth out of the backfield as he nears the end of his career.
