Rachaad White News
Sunday, July 26, 10:21 AM
Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White still has a place on win-now dynasty rosters, even if this backfield never gives him a traditional lead role. White finished 2025 with 572 yards and four touchdowns on 132 carries, then added 40 catches for 218 yards. The receiving work has always been the draw. He has 205 receptions through four NFL seasons, and Dan Quinn specifically pointed to what White added in the passing game during the offseason program. Washington has not named a starter, though Quinn expects several backs to handle important parts of the job. Jacory Croskey-Merritt led the team with 805 rushing yards and eight touchdowns last season, while Jerome Ford, Jeremy McNichols, and rookie Kaytron Allen leave plenty to sort out in camp. White may not get enough carries to become a weekly starter, but he does not need that kind of workload to help in PPR leagues. RotoBaller ranks him RB37 in dynasty. At 27 and on a one-year contract, he offers little reason for rebuilding teams to wait. Contenders can use the catches now and live with the uncertainty.

Tyler Allgeier News
Sunday, July 26, 6:23 PM
Arizona Cardinals running back Tyler Allgeier was working with the first-team offense in training camp practice on Sunday, per Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. Mackie reports that both Allgeier and 2026 first-round running back Jeremiyah Love were trading off series with the Cardinals' starters, but that Allgeier got the first series. The Cardinals drafted Love with the third overall pick this past April, indicating that the highly-touted prospect is the team's future at the running back position. Still, Allgeier is likely to play a significant role in the Arizona offense after the team signed him to a two-year, $12.25 million contract in free agency. While playing a complementary role alongside star running back Bijan Robinson for the Atlanta Falcons in 2025, Allgeier collected 514 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 143 carries. Entering 2026, RotoBaller ranks Allgeier as the RB50 for redraft leagues.
