Who Should I Start? Raheem Blackshear or Josh Williams

Carolina Panthers running back Raheem Blackshear will "almost exclusively be a special teams player" in 2025 if the team elects to keep a fourth RB around beyond training camp, writes The Charlotte Observer's Alex Zietlow. The Panthers only kept three RBs a year ago. Even with rookie Jonathon Brooks (knee) out for most of last season, Blackshear didn't have a single rushing attempt until Week 16. The 27-year-old will primarily be competing with David Moore, Jimmy Horn Jr. and Hunter Renfrow for a spot on the team's 53-man roster as a return option. The former undrafted free agent in 2022 has had 68 touches for 341 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns on offense for the Panthers in the last three years while adding 66 kickoff returns for 1,734 yards and 23 punt returns for 200 yards. He's off the fantasy radar in the vast majority of leagues.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have requested to interview Josh Williams for their vacant general manager position. Williams is currently the director of scouting and football operations with the San Francisco 49ers. He has been with the organization for over a decade in scouting roles, but just recently took over football operations. The Jags have already hired Liam Coen as their new head coach after moving on from former GM Trent Baalke. Whoever takes over as the Jags GM already has a head coach and franchise quarterback in Trevor Lawrence. Williams appears to be the favorite for the job after Mike Greenberg dropped out of the race.
