Who Should I Start? Qadree Ollison or Khari Blasingame

Free-agent running back Qadree Ollison is joining the Steelers' practice squad. The 26-year-old has appeared in 19 games throughout his career. However, after amassing four touchdowns as a rookie, he hasn't been nearly as productive ever since. Ollison, who was recently cut by the Jacksonville Jaguars, poses no threat to earn significant playing time this season, meaning fantasy managers should look past him heading into the 2023-24 campaign. But at the very least, he could get on the field during the regular season if Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren, or Anthony McFarland Jr. goes down with an injury.

Chicago Bears fullback Khari Blasingame is the team's next candidate to be released this offseason after the Bears already released safety Eddie Jackson and guard/center Cody Whitehair in cost-cutting moves. The moves to release Jackson and Whitehair saved nearly $22 million against the 2024 salary cap. Releasing Blasingame would result in $1.6 million in savings with no dead money left on the books. He's a true fullback who could fit into new offensive coordinator Shane Waldron's visions, but he's also a stalwart on special teams. The 27-year-old has played in 32 games (eight starts) for the Bears the last two years and has just eight carries for 26 yards and three receptions for two yards.
