Ty Johnson News
Wednesday, May 27, 6:57 PM
After missing both of the Buffalo Bills' playoff games in January, running back Ty Johnson (ankle) is back to 100% health and has been taking part in the team's OTA practices this offseason, according to Jeffrey Barnes of the Bluefield Daily Telegraph. In his third year in Buffalo in 2025, the 28-year-old played in 17 regular-season games but saw only 50 rushing attempts for 200 yards and a career-high three touchdowns while adding 24 receptions for 263 yards and two more TDs on 33 targets. The former sixth-rounder by the Detroit Lions in 2019 out of Maryland will continue to be a sparsely used change-of-pace back in Buffalo (mostly on passing downs) behind starter James Cook III and alongside Ray Davis. If something were to happen to Cook, Davis, not Johnson, would most likely see the majority of early-down snaps for the Bills. With limited opportunities probably coming again in 2026, Johnson should go undrafted in most redraft leagues. In half-PPR formats, RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 73 RB for 2026.

Jarquez Hunter News
Sunday, June 7, 12:00 PM
A fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Los Angeles Rams running back Jarquez Hunter appeared in just five games and did not record a single carry during his rookie season. With Rams running backs Kyren Williams and Blake Corum both appearing in all 17 games for Los Angeles, Hunter never had an opportunity to prove himself. Entering 2026, Williams and Corum remain atop the Rams running back depth chart and are coming off a season in which they combined to record over 2,300 yards from scrimmage and 19 touchdowns. Hunter may not even be guaranteed to win the RB3 role in Los Angeles, as veteran back Ronnie Rivers is also on the team's roster entering training camp. Hunter recorded 1,356 scrimmage yards and nine touchdowns in his final collegiate season at Auburn, so he could have some untapped upside. However, his path to playing time in Los Angeles is hard to see. Dynasty managers may want to consider moving on from Hunter ahead of 2026.
