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.

Woody Marks News
Thursday, July 30, 11:30 AM
Houston Texans running back Woody Marks is showing second-year growth during training camp, head coach DeMeco Ryans said, according to DJ Bien-Aime. Marks played 16 games with eight starts as a rookie, leading Houston with 196 carries for 703 yards and two rushing touchdowns. He also caught 24 of 36 targets for 208 yards and three scores, giving him five total touchdowns despite averaging 3.6 yards per carry. Houston added David Montgomery during the offseason after struggling to run the ball consistently in 2025, and the coaching staff has described the veteran as a three-down back. Marks has also been learning a broader route tree as the Texans explore ways to feature his receiving ability. Ryans' assessment is an encouraging sign that Marks is progressing after handling significant responsibility as a rookie. Montgomery's arrival limits his path to another lead-back workload, but continued development in the passing game could help Marks retain a meaningful complementary role in Houston's backfield.
