Trayveon Williams News
Sunday, August 23, 9:06 AM
Detroit Lions running back Trayveon Williams saw heavy usage in his team's second preseason game against the Washington Commanders on Saturday, recording 10 carries for 36 yards and a touchdown. The 28-year-old also logged a 24-yard reception on his only target out of the backfield. Across seven games split between the Los Angeles Chargers and Cleveland Browns in 2025, Williams recorded 91 scrimmage yards on 18 touches. The veteran back has played seven NFL seasons but has done most of his work on special teams, failing to reach 100 yards from scrimmage in all but one campaign. Still, Williams may have a chance to make the Lions' roster out of training camp. Detroit has superstar back Jahmyr Gibbs atop its running back depth chart, but reserve backs Isiah Pacheco (knee) and Sione Vaki (back) are both currently dealing with injuries. It's too early for fantasy managers to add Williams yet, but he could end up being a name to monitor as a handcuff option for Gibbs.

Zavier Scott News
Tuesday, December 30, 9:09 PM
Across 15 games this season, Minnesota Vikings running back Zavier Scott has recorded just 195 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 42 touches. The 26-year-old did not record a single touch in Minnesota's Week 17 win over the Detroit Lions. However, the Vikings are dealing with injuries to both of their top two running backs, Jordan Mason (ankle) and Aaron Jones Sr. (leg). While both Minnesota veterans have a chance to play in the team's Week 18 finale against the Green Bay Packers, the team is out of playoff contention and does not have much reason to push players onto the field. Scott has shown he can produce as a receiving back when given the chance, recording six catches for 43 yards and a touchdown on eight targets with Jones Sr. inactive in Week 4. In deep fantasy leagues, Scott may be worth targeting on the waiver wire heading into Week 18.
