Trey Benson News
Wednesday, June 24, 8:58 AM
Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson had a golden opportunity to take over as his team's lead back in 2025 after Cardinals veteran running back James Conner suffered a season-ending ankle injury in Week 3. However, Benson himself then suffered a knee injury in Week 4 that ultimately ended his season as well. While Benson is expected to be fully healthy and ready to go for the start of 2026, the situation around him in Arizona has changed. The Cardinals signed running back Tyler Allgeier to a two-year contract in free agency and then drafted all-world running back prospect Jeremiyah Love third overall in the 2026 NFL Draft. Arizona also still currently has Conner on its roster, whom Benson has been unable to pass on the depth chart since he entered the league in 2023. A change in scenery could drastically alter Benson's dynasty outlook, but until that happens, his fantasy appeal is minimal.

Damien Martinez News
Tuesday, September 2, 9:08 PM
The Seattle Seahawks have released rookie running back Damien Martinez from their practice squad, per John Boyle of Seahawks.com. Seattle selected Martinez in the seventh round of the 2025 draft, but he failed to make the team's 53-man roster and has now been bumped off the practice squad as well. Martinez averaged over six yards per carry in each of his three college seasons, so his track record of production could lead to him landing another practice squad deal with a different team. However, Martinez is highly unlikely to be fantasy-relevant in 2025 and does not hold much dynasty value at this point either.
