Tyrone Tracy Jr. News
Wednesday, June 10, 8:48 AM
A fifth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. burst onto the scene as a rookie by recording 1,123 scrimmage yards and six touchdowns on 230 touches across 17 games (12 starts). However, Tracy Jr. lost the RB1 role in New York to 2025 fourth-rounder Cam Skattebo (ankle) early last season. Skattebo (ankle) suffered a season-ending ankle injury in Week 8, which allowed Tracy Jr. to reclaim the starting role and top 1,000 scrimmage yards for the second consecutive season. Entering 2026, Skattebo is expected to be fully healthy and should reclaim the lead role in the Giants' backfield. Still, Tracy Jr. could remain a valuable player to roster for dynasty managers. The 26-year-old is a former college wide receiver who has recorded 74 catches for 572 yards on 101 targets across his first two NFL seasons, which could allow him to provide fantasy production even while playing a complementary role. Additionally, Skattebo's violent play style gives him a heightened injury risk and makes Tracy Jr. a high-end handcuff option. For the right price, Tracy Jr. could be worth buying low on entering 2026.

Jordan James News
Saturday, June 13, 10:41 AM
A fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan James appeared in just three games and did not record a single carry as a rookie last season. However, James reportedly has a strong chance to enter 2026 as the 49ers' primary backup behind superstar running back Christian McCaffrey. Following the offseason departure of former 49ers back Brian Robinson Jr., James' primary competition for the RB2 role appears to be rookie third-rounder Kaelon Black and 2024 fourth-rounder Isaac Guerendo. While James is not guaranteed to win the job, he may have the well-rounded skill set of the group and has drawn praise from 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan this offseason. As long as McCaffrey stays healthy, James' path to fantasy-relevant playing time will remain blocked. Still, McCaffrey has a long injury track record and is entering his age-30 season after logging an NFL-leading 413 touches in 2025. Dynasty managers should prioritize buying low on James ahead of his potential emergence as a high-end handcuff running back.
