Sincere McCormick News
Friday, August 14, 2:06 AM
San Francisco 49ers running back Sincere McCormick led the team in carries and rushing yards in Thursday's preseason loss to the Tennessee Titans. McCormick finished the game with 10 carries for 38 yards in a difficult day on the ground for San Francisco. He also fielded one kickoff for a 27-yard return and had one target but could not bring in the catch on what was a broken screen play. Past Christian McCaffrey (soreness), the 49ers' running back depth chart is a big question mark. McCormick does not have any fantasy value at present, but as long as he is competing for San Francisco's RB2 role, managers should keep tabs on him through the preseason. Given McCaffrey's injury history, whoever wins the depth chart battle will have value as a handcuff once the regular season opens. McCormick's next chance to work his way up the roster will come on August 20 against the Chargers.

Pierre Strong Jr. News
Saturday, December 13, 2:27 PM
The Green Bay Packers have elevated running back Pierre Strong Jr. from their practice squad to the active roster ahead of the team's Week 15 matchup against the Denver Broncos. With top Green Bay running backs Josh Jacobs (knee) and Emanuel Wilson (illness) both questionable for Sunday, the Packers could be forced to turn to Strong Jr. and Chris Brooks in the backfield. The 27-year-old Strong Jr. has yet to appear in a game so far in 2025. Across 14 games with the Cleveland Browns in 2024, he recorded 212 scrimmage yards on 40 touches. Brooks has just 66 total carries across 37 career NFL games, so it's unclear who Green Bay would turn to as the lead back if both Jacobs and Wilson are out. Fantasy managers may want to stash Strong Jr. off the waiver wire just in case he finds himself in a prominent role come game time on Sunday.
