Former Indianapolis Colts and Buffalo Bills running back Nyheim Hines, who hasn't played in the NFL for the last two seasons due to a knee injury, reached an undisclosed agreement with the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 28-year-old initially tore his left ACL in a jet-skiing accident after the 2022 season and missed all of 2023 and 2024 as a result. Before his injury, he was a useful pass-catching, change-of-pace option out of the backfield for the Colts and Bills. The Chargers are most likely adding Hines primarily as insurance for Najee Harris (eye), who is on the Non-Football Injury list to start training camp with a superficial eye injury that he suffered during a fireworks mishap. Hines is also known for his abilities as a returner on special teams, but for now, he'll strictly be RB depth for the Bolts with Harris not able to practice yet.

Free-agent running back Travis Homer re-signed with the Chicago Bears on Monday on a one-year, $2 million deal, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Homer will be back for a third year in the Windy City and is currently the No. 3 behind D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson. The 26-year-old former sixth-round selection (204th overall) by the Seattle Seahawks in 2019 out of the University of Miami (FL) saw a grand total of six rushing attempts for 23 yards while catching three of four targets for 11 yards in 26 games (no starts) over the last two years in Chicago, so he hasn't been a very big part of the offense. A hamstring injury kept him sidelined for the final three games in 2024, but he should be good to go for training camp this summer. Homer will once again be nowhere near the fantasy radar for the Bears heading into 2025 drafts.
