Zamir White Traded to New Orleans

Sunday, August 23, 6:22 PM

The New Orleans Saints have traded linebacker Deion Jones to the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for running back Zamir White. White was signed by the 49ers less than two weeks ago after injuries to running backs Christian McCaffrey (rest), Jordan James (ribs), and Kaelon Black (groin). With all three backs practicing on Sunday, White was sent to New Orleans, which has its own injury issues. Veteran running back Alvin Kamara (knee) is expected to miss some time, and Devin Neal (hamstring) was injured during the 49ers' Saturday preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams. While this could be another camp body for the Saints, it doesn't bode well for Neal, who has dealt with multiple injuries throughout training camp.

Kyren Williams News

Blake Corum Listed as Backup Behind Kyren Williams in Unofficial Depth Chart

Sunday, August 16, 7:20 PM

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum was listed as the backup to Kyren Williams on the team's unofficial preseason depth chart. Corum had a strong second season in 2025, totaling 746 rushing yards and six touchdowns in 17 games, while adding only 36 receiving yards on eight catches. Although Corum and Williams split work late last season, the team left the veteran back as the RB1, with Corum as the RB2. While the unofficial depth chart isn't a definitive indicator of the team's backfield plans, it does support the Rams' belief in Williams, who recorded over 1,500 yards and 13 touchdowns in 2025. Corum is currently ranked RB32 in RotoBaller's positional rankings, which may be too high a price if he sees a workload similar to last season.
