Travis Homer Climbing to Second Spot on Depth Chart

Sunday, November 2, 9:17 AM

Chicago Bears running back Travis Homer is expected to operate as the backup to Kyle Monangai after the team ruled out D'Andre Swift (groin) and Roschon Johnson (back). Homer spent the first six weeks of the season on injured reserve, and he has not yet registered an offensive snap in his two games since returning. He has played exclusively on special teams so far, but that should change this week. Not only will he handle some offensive snaps, but he'll likely see at least a handful of touches as the Bears look to take some of the workload off Monangai. It's unlikely we'll see Homer have fantasy relevance this week, but we'll certainly still hear his name called from time to time.

LeQuint Allen Jr. in Line for Increased Role in 2026?

Friday, February 20, 7:39 AM

A seventh-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Jacksonville Jaguars running back LeQuint Allen Jr. established himself as his team's RB3 as a rookie. Allen Jr. played a minimal role on offense, recording 148 scrimmage yards on 33 touches across 17 games played. The 21-year-old's path to playing time was blocked by the Jaguars' strong running back tandem of Travis Etienne Jr. and Bhayshul Tuten. However, Etienne Jr. is set to hit free agency this spring and may not be back in Jacksonville in 2026. Tuten flashed high-end upside in 2025 and would likely take over the Jaguars' RB1 role should Etienne Jr. sign elsewhere in free agency. Still, Allen Jr. could be in line for a significant playing time increase and might establish himself as Jacksonville's primary third-down and receiving back in his second NFL season. In dynasty formats, Allen Jr. might be worth stashing until the backfield picture in Jacksonville becomes clearer.
