Terrell Jennings Starting Camp on the NFI List

Tuesday, July 21, 4:20 PM

New England Patriots running back Terrell Jennings (undisclosed) will open training camp on the Non-Football Injury list, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN. It means that Jennings will not be cleared to practice early in camp, but he can be activated at any time. It's not great news for Jennings, who will be competing with rookies Jam Miller and Myles Montgomery, and Lan Larison for the RB3 role this summer behind TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson. The 25-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Florida A&M has had a small role in New England's backfield in his first two years in the league, combining for 36 rushing attempts, 106 yards, and one touchdown in just 10 games played in 2024 and 2025, adding one reception for nine yards last year. The longer Jennings takes to get cleared for camp and the preseason, the more of a long shot he'll be to win RB3 duties in the Patriots' backfield in 2026.

Trevor Etienne Still Has Work to Do for Redraft Value

Sunday, July 26, 9:28 AM

Carolina Panthers running back Trevor Etienne remains a long shot for useful redraft work after barely touching the offense as a rookie. He appeared in all 17 games, but 20 carries for 94 yards and three catches for 13 yards were the extent of his production. Special teams kept him active. It did not move him any closer to Chuba Hubbard, who enters camp as Carolina's clear lead back. Jonathon Brooks is also back after missing last season with his second ACL tear, and the early camp reports have been encouraging. The Panthers added AJ Dillon, too, although the veteran is fighting for a roster spot rather than walking into a guaranteed role. Etienne still has speed, youth, and fourth-round draft capital on his side. He also has to prove he can earn more than a handful of offensive snaps. RotoBaller ranks him RB84 for redraft, which is where he belongs until the backfield starts opening up. He is a preseason watch-list player in deeper formats, not someone managers need to force into ordinary drafts.
