Salvon Ahmed News
Friday, August 8, 7:12 PM
Indianapolis Colts running back Salvon Ahmed (ankle) was taken down by a defender with an illegal hip-drop tackle in training camp practice on Sunday and suffered a season-ending ankle injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Colts placed Ahmed on season-ending Injured Reserve on Friday and have signed former Dolphins RB Nate Noel in a corresponding move. Jonathan Taylor is the unquestioned RB1 in Indy, with Tyler Goodson and rookie DJ Giddens battling for backup duties in 2025. With Ahmed now done for the entire 2025 campaign, it will mean added opportunities for Khalil Herbert, Ulysses Bentley and Noel as they look to make the 53-man roster out of training camp. The 26-year-old Ahmed spent his first four seasons in Miami and had a combined 593 rushing yards and five rushing touchdowns on 163 carries over 38 games (four starts).

Isaac Guerendo News
Sunday, July 26, 10:18 AM
The San Francisco 49ers placed running back Isaac Guerendo (pectoral) on the Physically Unable to Perform list to start training camp on Saturday, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports. Guerendo is not ready to practice with the team after suffering a torn pectoral muscle while lifting weights in the offseason. The 26-year-old former fourth-rounder in 2024 from the University of Louisville had 84 carries for 420 yards (5.0 yards per carry) and four rushing touchdowns in 16 games (three starts) as a rookie, but he didn't have a single rushing attempt or a target in the 14 games he appeared in during last regular season, quickly falling out of favor in San Fran's backfield. Entering his third year in the NFL, Guerendo is looking like the team's RB4, at best, behind Christian McCaffrey, Jordan James, and rookie Kaelon Black. Guerendo's elite speed sets him apart, but already falling behind in camp is another bad sign for his already plummeting fantasy value. It's hard to recommend holding him in dynasty/keeper leagues at this point.
