The Cincinnati Bengals announced on Tuesday that they placed running back Zack Moss (neck) on the Active/Non-Football Injury list. Moss was only able to play in eight games (six starts) last year in his first season with the Bengals due to a season-ending neck injury. The 27-year-old did take part in OTAs in the spring, though, which means he should be activated from the NFI list sooner than later at camp. Chase Brown is the clear lead back for the Bengals after a big 2024 season, although Moss will be involved as a change-of-pace option if he's healthy. Moss saw only 74 rushing attempts last year and ran for 242 yards (career-low 3.3 yards per carry) and two touchdowns. When Moss is able to get back onto the field, he'll primarily be competing with veteran Samaje Perine for the No. 2 duties behind Brown this year.

In a recent Locked on Cowboys podcast appearance, former Dallas Cowboys coach Glenn Smith said that coaches with the Cowboys have expressed that rookie fifth-round running back Jaydon Blue is "borderline lazy" and that the team isn't happy with his work habits. Blue is expected to have a big role on offense and is very explosive, but it's not a great sign for him heading into training camp. The 21-year-old is also under 200 pounds and comes with ball-security issues from his college days. The Cowboys like Blue's speed and explosiveness, but he didn't work at all with the first-team offense in spring workouts, suggesting Dallas could open the year with a backfield consisting mostly of Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders. The Cowboys will be hoping that Blue can mature quickly, but he's also no lock to make the roster out of training camp.
